The Kite Ranch is a launch site and community gathering spot on the west shore of Keho Lake, Alberta's most famous kitesurfing spot. This "kite ranch" is the social heart of the southern Alberta kite community.
Located on the west shore, the Kite Ranch offers direct lake access with the dominant Chinook winds. The site serves as a base for sessions, events, and community gatherings. Keho Lake at 963 m altitude benefits from Rocky Mountain foehn winds among the most consistent in Canada. Season from May to October.
