Haskayne is one of Calgary’s newest regional parks, opening in September 2023. The park is located west of the city on the north bank of the Bearspaw Reservoir.
From Calgary, drive west towards Cochrane on Highway 1A and turn south on Woodland Road (Range Road 31). Follow the road all the way down to the reservoir until you reach the large parking lot.
The biggest attraction to this park is the extremely scenic regional pathway, which connects to Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park, with views over the Bearspaw Reservoir and Bow River. Once inside the ranch, you’ll be riding through an active cattle ranch, which is always a fun highlight for children when a herd is close to the pathway (and don’t worry, they’re safely behind a fence). Train enthusiasts will also love this park, which has one controlled crossing you’ll ride across. Trains pass through the park regularly, and you’ll be riding quite close to the tracks much of the time.
