The best view in Calgary |
5620 15 Street North West (bordered on the east by Shaganappi Trail) Calgary, AB T2N 4C9 +1 403 269 8289 / +1 403 269 6688 (Calgary Parks & Recreation Outdoor/Nature Services) |
From here, the view of Calgary is incomparable. The location requires a bit of effort to hike the kilometre up a gentle slope to the top of the hill. Once there, the reward is a 360-degree view spanning the Rocky Mountains, with the skyscrapers of downtown rising out of the Bow River Valley and the prairie stretching off to the east. The surrounding long-grass prairie offers glimpses of the local wildlife, as numerous deer, jackrabbits and the red-tailed hawk call it home. Take the train from downtown to the Brentwood station, then hike up Charleswood Avenue to the park gates. Review © 2009, Wcities |
