Black Diamond

From its origins as a coal-mining center in the late nineteenth century, Black Diamond has grown into a small yet thriving town of nearly two thousand people, nestled amidst some of the most spectacular natural scenery in the Rocky Mountains foothills. Residents of Black Diamond Alberta Real Estate can take part in fishing in the Sheep River, as well as swimming, golfing, and horseback riding, while enjoying the stunning scenery of the Kananaskis Country. Black Diamond is linked to Turner Valley Alberta Real Estate via a three kilometer paved trail that is a popular exercise route for walkers, joggers and cyclists. The two towns even share a golf course, the Turner Valley Golf & Country Club, which features an eighteen-hole course that is as attractive as it is challenging.

There are plenty of other activities to take part in throughout the year, with facilities for hockey, lacrosse, tennis, curling, and other sports in the town.
