  • Great walking paths, clear and easy to follow even in deep snow. Plenty of open space and route options. Lovely views of the river and city.

  • We like to bring the kids here as there is a great park on the island. It is one of the few parks in Calgary where the whole park is covered with shade from trees. The island is surrounded by water.....  more

  • I was in Downtown Calgary, looking for a nature fix, and headed to St Patricks Island. It's been a VERY late spring here, so there wasn't much green around, but there was a good amount of bird...

  • Very beautiful and peaceful. See lots of birds and a great view of downtown.
  • Beautiful place to visit and gorgeous walk along the river! Connects to Fort Calgary and East Village. Pay parking on the Zoo West side, washrooms open in mid spring and summer.
  • Calm and relaxing park away from too much people (mostly they are in Prince’s Island Park) There’s a pond where you can have a picnic, chill on a blanket, throw stones on the water or just look at the calm canopy of trees. St. Patrick Island is a bit long, connected to Calgary Zoo. There’s a really good trail for running, fireplace/grill, clean washrooms and parking lot.
  • Great fire pit located on the top of the hill. Beautiful view of downtown
  • A very beautiful place for enjoying your day off.
