Prince's Island Park is a beautiful urban oasis in the heart of Calgary that provides the residents with a beautiful green space in which to enjoy a variety of recreational activities.

Established in the 1950s, Prince's Island Park features several picnic areas, water fountains and playgrounds for children, winding pathways and hiking trails, flowers gardens and canoe access to the river in the summer months. Winter provides excellent opportunities for cross-country skiing and outdoor skating on the lagoon and the River Café is the perfect spot to relax over a coffee.

Snaking along the East end of the Park is the Chevron Learning Pathway, which is an environmental educational pathway and recreational resource constructed around a protected wetland area. The Park also hosts several large events throughout the year, including the Calgary Folk Festival and Canada Day celebrations.
