Default Walking/Hiking/Biking Trails in Calgary

Hi all,

So I am trying to try and stay as active as possible with all this Covid thing. Gym's are generally still closed and I am craving some good outdoor experiences.

I was recently in Vancouver visiting friends and everybody (all ex Calgarians) kept bragging and bragging and asking if I had done the Stanley Park loop and the seawall etc.

I will admit that Stanley Park is very beautiful and the seawall is also an excellent part of Vancouver. Why were all these ex Calgarians telling me how great a walking trail and a park Stanley Park was when we all grew up in Calgary? I am starting to wonder if we just don't appreciate what we really have in Calgary sometimes??

So to make a long post as short as possible, what trails and pathways are CP users using these days? I know and use a lot of the ones close to my home such as Bowness Park, Edworthy Park, Glenmore Park/Reservoir, Griffith Woods Park. Anybody got any other suggestions? I grew up next to Fish Creek so that's also another goodie.

Has anybody done the Douglas Fir Trail hike at Edworthy recently? I came across one of the signs today while out, I can't recall doing it but than again I don't remember every walk.

Thanks for all the suggestions!
