Calgary's best walking pathways Whether you’re looking for a good, low-impact workout or just want to relax on a beautiful summer afternoon, Calgary has numerous pathways that connect with different neighbourhoods, parks and natural areas. If you need any suggestions, here are some of our favourites:
1. Glenmore Reservoir Loop A favourite for walkers, boaters and cyclists alike, the Glenmore Reservoir pathway leads across bridges, through marshes and past scenic viewpoints. You can start your walk at any of the multiple parking lots around the reservoir and make the full trek or turn around at any point.
2. Prince's Island Park: Chevron Learning Pathway Along the east end of the park, this pathway provides scenic views of the city skyline and the Bow River, and features educational signage of the wildlife, habitat and water quality. It's an easy, interactive walk to get your steps in – it's less than 1 km – that has become a favourite for Calgarians and visitors alike.
3. Fish Creek Park: Bebo Grove Loop Fish Creek is home to 80 km of mixed-use pathways across sprawling forest and grassland. It's the second largest urban park in Canada and it's famous for its rich biodiversity (over 200 different birds have been spotted here). Of all the paths in the park, our favourite is Bebo Grove Loop, which starts at the west end of the park and flows east towards the Bow River. It provides an escape from the buzz of the city with its mesmerizing views and room for activities.
4. Nose Hill Park: Nose Hill Loop If you're looking for a compelling views and a little bit of a challenge, the Nose Hill Loop starting at the 14 Street NW parking lot at Nose Hill Park is the perfect choice. It's 7.6 km in length and takes almost two hours to complete. The trail is also popular for other activities like birdwatching and mountain biking. If you're luck, you may also see deer or one of the local porcupines. 5.
Jack & Jean Leslie RiverWalk If you want to absorb the buzzing energy of the city, this walk is for you. As one of the Calgary's most-loved public spaces, the RiverWalk parallels the Bow River, connecting Centre Street to Fort Calgary and then following the Elbow River to 9 Avenue SE.
The pathway has dedicated pedestrian and cycling lanes, so you can walk, relax and enjoy the view of Calgary's skyline, art installations and more. There are also several places to stop for refreshments around the area, so you can grab a coffee while you're at it to keep you energized.
