Bowness Park

Bowness Park has been a Calgary favourite for more than a century, and it’s easy to see why once you’re by the lagoon. The shallow water winds through the park, with trees lining the paths and plenty of picnic areas around the shore. You can rent a paddleboat or kayak, then grab some food and find a spot by the water.
