Hello, Ward 4 Residents,
Discover the Wonders of Calgary’s Parks This Winter Season
Embrace a unique perspective of Calgary’s parks in winter, offering a distinctive experience compared to other seasons. Many cold-weather park activities are complimentary and require minimal equipment. Winter presents the opportunity to skate on outdoor rinks, admire beautifully illuminated ice trails, engage in Crokicurl, and ride ice bikes in our parks. Consider planning an afternoon at your local community park for activities like snowshoeing or cross-country skiing. Opt for groomed cross-country trails at parks or golf courses for smoother skiing. Take a leisurely stroll through a park on a sunny winter day to observe birds and other wildlife. Additionally, you can reserve an outdoor firepit at a park for a winter picnic with friends.
