Weekly Weekend Walk

**PLEASE NOTE: This will be a moderate to brisk paced urban hike with only a couple of stops en route (4.5- 5km/hour).**

This event will be weather dependent, please check the EOC calendar and your email for any updates.

We will meet at 11:00am and leave at 11:10am sharp.

To find me, I’ll be wearing a royal blue baseball cap and stood next to a silver Toyota RAV4.

About this walk: ~10-12km
There are trails winding through the entire park on the Southside of the North Saskatchewan River. Some trails in the park are wide and well trodden. Others are more narrow and uneven. Parts of the hike will require some up and downhill as well. But it's well worth it to reach some of the scenic points of the park overlooking the river. We will head to Anthony Henday Drive overpass which is located south of the park then turn back to Terwillegar Park to the parking lot.
