The Bow River flows east through Calgary and forms part of the eastern boundary of Fish Creek Provincial Park. In this area, paved pathways and multi-use trails follow its banks, offering scenic access to water views, wildlife, and connections to Calgary’s greater pathway system. The river and adjacent parklands are popular for walking, cycling, fishing and enjoying open-air river scenery within the city’s natural green corridor.
