Fortress Mountain is a hotbed for films

The new Kingdom of the Planet of the Apes movie hit theatres last weekend and some fans are asking questions about where it was filmed.

Some local fans wonder if the new movie was filmed in Alberta like the last one.

War for the Planet of the Apes was shot at Fortress Mountain in Kananaskis Country in 2016.

However, fans looking for scenes from Alberta will be disappointed as it was not filmed in Alberta or K-Country.

But there are a lot of other movies shot at Fortress Mountain if you're looking for nostalgia.

If you're a fan of the skiing at Fortress Mountain from back in the day you may be surprised to hear there is work being done to reopen the legendary hill.

According to their website: Currently closed for lift-accessed services, Fortress Mountain is undergoing the single largest redevelopment and revision program in its legendary 55-year history. Phase 1 plans will furnish new lifts, a new lodge, and much more. Fortress will soon again offer multiple generations of skiers and riders terrain and amenities to create that perfect ski day. Along with the excitement of a new winter resort, Fortress is also developing summer programs, making Fortress a year-round adventure destination.

However, there is no timeline for the redevelopment.
