    Winter Wunderbar!

    Not all of the parks in Calgary are good in the winter. Fish Creek PP is fab during every season. I walk there regularly, and enjoy that in winter, the main trails are plowed. Now, there can still be icy and slippery sections, especially on...More

    It was a nice relaxing walk along the paths. It was nice to see so many ducks and geese on the water.

    Great place fir a stroll

    Took our dogs for a walk in the park and thoroughly enjoyed the terrain. Could access rougher trails, or stick to the pavement. Nice to have access to such a lovely park right in the city.

    Yes. Depending on where you are coming from in the City of Calgary, light rail 201 or bus #3 goes there. The park remember is huge so there are probably more than one stop.
