  • St. Patrick's Island Park

    One of Calgary’s oldest parks, the development of St. Patrick’s Island as a public space began in the late 1890s and gained momentum with the construction of a bridge to the island in the early 1900s. More than a century later, this all-but-forgotten treasure at the city’s centre has re-emerged as an amenity-rich, family-friendly—and National Urban Design Award-winning park. We can check out the beach in the summer months, a restored channel where we can wade into the water and venture safely out onto a gravel bar. Or just enjoy the views! Also, we will seee Lowland Channel – a seasonal riparian wetland at the heart of the island, with an elevated boardwalk for no-impact access to the wetland and the Gallery Forest, an important habitat for nesting eagles, owls and songbirds. We will also identify some plants and tress the first nations would have used as tea, and medicines.

Great tour and great tour guide. Sue is a gem!

Published on Nov, 2024

Yes. That is the answer you should choose when deciding if you want to book a sightseeing tour with Sue. We had a great time with her during our trip to Calgary. She has such a nice demeanor, friendly and tenacious. It is evident that she genuinely cares that her guests have a nice time learning about the city. She gave us a variety of experiences… from little known gems to neighborhood character… from iconic building interiors to area history. At the end of our time together we felt like we had made a friend. Thank you Sue and huzzah to those who say “yes!”
