Historic Calgary Week FREE Walk: DAM! A heart pumping historical Calgary walk
July 30 @ 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Description:
Join Lori Beattie, Calgary’s Best Walks, for a walking tour with a nod to some historical influencers: W. Reader, W. Pearce, and the Livingstons. This 6-7 km, fast-paced walk will include a mix of gravel trails, uneven terrain, paved paths, and sidewalks as we move through the Elbow River Valley Sandy Beach Park, Glenmore Dam, and urban mural pathways into Bel-Aire, taking in saskatoon slopes and passing by ice cream/coffee shops for those keen for a tasty pitstop before the end of the walk.
Note: this is a challenging, fast-paced hike. It may not be suitable for everyone.
