Nice little quiet place to go for a stroll. A bit hidden and out of the way. But nice if you are looking for a park in the city that's not busy.

Staff was very helpful, knowledgable and friendly! They offer a few options for each skill level, tubing, small terrain park, chair lift & tow line ( it's like the T bar w out the T bar handles ). Had to rent and was pleased w the condition of the gear ( snowboard, boots, helmet ). Very reasonably priced. I look forward to going back again w my boy to try out the tube park.

The park was once an aboriginal camp and the park was established to preserve the site from encroaching industrial development.The park contains several abandoned interpretive buildings which unfortunately are now shuttered. Remnants of the park's history as a public science center include triangular obelisks, a boardwalk and some interpretive plaques.Another discovery in the glorious city which I am fortunate enough to call home. Definitely a repeat visit is called for!

A hidden gem of Edmonton. While it seems in the middle of an industrial area, it is perfect for biking on its various difficulties of trails and, has many hiking trails of various lengths. At night, the sky is clearer than the city. Beware, the entrance is intersected by a train track. You could get stuck waiting for a train to pass while getting out.

I really enjoyed this Ski Hill. It's relatively easy to get too. Simple park and pay. Out to the back. Lots of terrain for tricks if that interests you, 2 blues, two blacks that are doable, a couple greens. Good scenery. 3-5 pm had minimal people for easy chair lift. No T-Bar. Small bunny hill. I would say overall a good hill, a bit of a stretch to get back the blue or green hill though it gives you a good glide.

It is definitely a beautiful place to go walk around. You got a single line Trails bike trails walking trails that go over the river into rundel park and back the network of trails is phenomenal.

The park is a run down and seems to be forgotten about, however for mounting biking, it has a fantastic variety of trails and courses. In addition, it has some fantastic vistas to watch the sun. If the some money was spent on improving the trail signage and formalizing the mountain bike course, this would a 5* all season playground .

Kids and I stumbled upon this place while hiking. The morning information is cool to read but the park and buildings looks like something out of an apocalyptic movie; graffiti everywhere, no access to the building - so it is closed? Permanently or for the season? We said we'd return when the snow is gone and see if maybe they clean it up and open it up.

It's a beautiful place, nice trails . You can see the city scape . Sunset is nice there but i think it's a hook up spot for sex. There was alot of in and out of car action there. So probably won't go back at night again. But it's wonderful during the day one side the city scape other side u can see the oil refinery

Really amazing spot for the middle of Sherwood Park and Edmonton, super nice, lots of trees, is great for biking! Also a ski hill is extremely close to it if you are in the mood for that, overall very nice place!
