Carburn Park: what do users think?

muhammad farhan: Great place to visit

Swetang Desai: Good park. We did hike from Carburn park to Beaver dam flats and it's very scenic. The whole hike is paved so strollers would work too.

Russell Reed: Bowness Park, with stunning views of the Bow River and plenty of space to roam around is a perfect spot for a few hours of outdoor adventure without having to leave calgary.In winter its a snowy wonderland, with ice skating around the paths and the river, cozy fire pits, and a couple of non-regulation curling circles where you can try your hand at the Winter Olympics most popular sport.Come for the curling, stay for the memories!

GANESH RAMALINGAM: Great park for a walk along the river, there is a train track around the park and a boat launch wonderful if they are seasonally active, apart from that we saw a lot of birds around mainly Canada geese, Downey woodpeckers and some American robins, stroller friendly trail. The bow river is flowing so humble along the park with pleasant sound of the river around. Situated in North west Calgary.Picnic area: Very large picnic area

Tons of activities in all seasons. Definitely recommend checking out this NW Calgary park.Playground: Several playgrounds to chose from.Restrooms: Public facilities available outside the winter months.Dog-friendliness: Believe it's an on leash area but lots of trails and natural space for dogs.Picnic area: Several reserve-able picnic areas to chose from.
