Are you looking for ways to keep the young people in your life and yourself active with fun, free activities this summer? Calgary’s parks have so much to offer. Ward off boredom and stay busy with new adventures all summer by trying the following activities.

  • Cool off with a trip to a spray park or wading pool that you haven’t visited before. Check out calgary.ca/sprayparks for a list of all City spray parks and wading pools. Did you know that select parks also have aquatic wheelchairs that you can borrow for free?
  • Explore a new playground. Check out the playground finder map on calgary.ca that has all City playgrounds, including inclusive playgrounds (square icons) with something for everyone. The map includes information about the play surface for each playground (e.g., gravel or inclusive playgrounds that have accessible rubber surfaces).
  • Golf, disc golf, bike pump tracks, and more. The City has seven City of Calgary courses, family golf nights and several youth programs, and golf lessons. Our parks also have four permanent and some temporary disc golf courses for you to enjoy during a nice summer day. Take a break during your bike ride along the City’s regional pathway to try a bike pump track. Find out where you can play beach volleyball this summer and much more at calgary.ca.
