On the first weekend of May every year\, Jane’s Walk festivals take place in hundreds of cities around the world. This event encourages people to share stories about their neighbourhoods\, discover unseen aspects of their communities\, and use walking as a way to connect with their neighbours. \nThe Walk: \n\n\nJoin Lori Beattie\, intrepid urban explorer and author of the just released 3rd edition of Calgary’s Best Walks\, and discover how she moves through the city\, connecting communities on foot and searching out the secret paths and hidden stairway connectors whenever she can. From Sandy Beach Park we’ll travel along the Elbow River Pathway\, up the saskatoon slopes to stunning views of the river valley. We’ll navigate Britannia to connector paths that lead to blossoming gardens before we cross the river and find the hidden stairway into into the urban wilds\, followed by stunning downtown views. We’ll walk through Elbow Park to Marda Loop\, past the new shops of 34th Avenue and into Altadore\, where a fairy garden makes you smile\, little libraries beckon\, and a secret path leads to a garden that you’ll want to revisit throughout the summer! This walk is about 6-7 km with hills and a mix of paved path\, sidewalk\, stairs and dirt paths.\n\n\n\n\n\nMore about the book: \nBestselling Alberta author Lori Beattie is back with much expanded 3rd edition of her hugely successful compendium of Calgary’s Best Walks.

Navigate side streets\, enjoying homes\, gardens and new perspectives. Make friends with the chickadees on birding strolls throughout the city. Embark on a mural treasure hunt in Sunnyside or the Beltline. Calgary’s Best Walks has something for everyone\, including Lori’s favourite coffee shop suggestions for a postwalk treat.
