Glenbow RD Rural Rocky View County AB T0L 0W0 MLS #C4215598

157.52 (+/-) Acres of undeveloped lands minutes from both the city of Calgary and Cochrane. The lands are situated between Mountain Ridge Place and Glenbow Road, with easy access south off of the Number 1A highway. The Glenbow Ranch area has a spectacular landscape. The narrow plateau south of Highway 1A provides outstanding views of the Rocky Mountains and the Bow River Valley and the dramatic transition of the rolling foothills into the prairie grasslands. From the escarpment, a relatively undisturbed landscape of coulees, wetlands, and rough fescue grasses flows down terraced slopes to the Bow River. The area contains three small country residential communities situated on the plateau adjacent to Highway 1A. The primary land use activity in the Plan area is currently ranching. Lands are perfect for a private & exclusive place to build your home or family compound.
In 2008, the Government of Alberta created Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park (Provincial Park), which operates as a working ranch and protects some, but not all, of this important landscape. This combination of landscape, the Provincial Park, and proximity to neighboring centers provides the opportunity, and the challenge, of creating distinctive residential communities that embrace and successfully retain the natural values that are present within the Glenbow area.
