Information & Facilities

Location: One of the newest members of the Alberta Parks’ family, Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park is less than an hour drive northwest of Calgary along the BowRiver. A day use park, Glenbow Ranch is a great destination for a picnic, where there are over 28 kms of pathways. The park is still a working ranch and the visitor centre has exhibits that describe the history of the lands where the park has been established. The park is a partnership between the Glenbow Ranch Foundation and AlbertaParks. Please check the website for hours of operation before you go.
