Calgary Parks Are A Delight

for calgarians and visitors alike,while dog owners like Calgary parks for the many off-leash areas. As a matter of fact every new subdivision now has provisions for an abundance of green space and many of the newer communities are built around a lake or a golf course.

While it is impossible to list them all, I will quickly say a few words about some of the most outstanding city parks.

a) DEVONIAN GARDENS.

This Calgary park is undoubtedly one of the world’s largest indoor parks, and is spread over 3 levels of the TD Square smack dab in the middle of downtown Calgary.

With 135 varieties of flora and 20.000 plants it delights both calgarians and tourists alike.

b) NOSEHILL PARK

No less than 11.27 sq KM of prairie parkland located in the NW of Calgary provides a great place to get away from the hustle and bustle of your daily routine.

Come and do some bird watching and you may even spot a whitetail deer or a curious coyote.

Your pooch will love the off-leash area which is the size of nearly 20 football fields!
