A Provincial park within a city! a peaceful place just minutes away for walking, sitting or picnic lunch. Don't be surprised if you come across a deer or two.

I went with my friends in April and we met up at the parking lot by the Ranche. We walked for a good 3 hours and would've kept going but our babies were starting to get fussy. Love the paved pathways, how wide they are (especially comes in handy for strollers). Lots of parking and easy access. Defintely will go... More

We go to Fish creek Park at least once per week - often much more in the Spring & Summer. It's great for dog walking, picnics and biking. The creek is safe for dogs and it's a great wy to cool down on a hot summer day.

Lots of basic ways to enjoy the park: light hiking, sitting by the water, biking, snow shoeing, x-country sking, picnics. Easy to get to and easy to access.

A beautiful place for a long walk or bike ride, especially at times of the year when hiking in the mountains is not possible, or you don't have the time. It can be made part of a grand circuit around Calgary on a bike.

Love going down to take pictures, gets me back to nature and the things that make me take a step back and just enjoy the moment in nature. Love the paths, excellent for bikes and walking

This park is awesome you will forget the you are totally surrounded a bustling city I have seen lots of wildlife including Gardner snakes, whitetail deer, Bald Eagles, Beavers. and lots more wildlife. There is pathways that walkers and cyclist both use and paths that branch off. There is lots of water so bring some bug spray.

This is a provincial park in the city with no park fee. This is a great place to spend a day or a couple of hours. It is kept as natural as possible with decent paved paths for walkers, cyclists, snowshoers. Walk your dog but nowhere off leash. The one thing that does bother me is that people will often... More
