Experience the Rotary/Mattamy Greenway Parks Foundation Calgary plans to continue to develop the attractions along the network, but there are already lots of great features to enjoy. Here are some of the highlights from around the Rotary/Mattamy Greenway.

Manmeet Singh Bhullar Park - NE This newly developed park is located in the community of Taradale, close to where Manmeet Singh Bhullar lived. This legacy park pays tribute to Bhullar, a Calgary politician, a strong supporter of park development, who is remembered fondly for bringing people and communities together. It is fitting that the park is a real community space. The park covers over 5 hectares and includes a colourful grove of trees, a plaza and large harvest tables. These tables are unique in Calgary, providing gathering places that seat up to 20 people. The grove is composed of five different types of trees that will intertwine together as they grow. It represents Bhullar’s ability to bring people together across all kind of cultures.

David Richardson Memorial Disc Golf Park -NW This 27-acre site is located at the intersection of Country Hills Boulevard and Stoney Trail in northwest Calgary. Disc golf is similar to regular golf but instead of a ball and club, you use a flying disc. This park is a full 18-hole tournament level course.

Saddlebrook Playpark - NE

This is a nature-inspired park, with natural looking rock and log features. Some of the play equipment even looks like bears! It’s a great play area for older kids and younger kids alike.

CN Rail Playpark - SE Some of the play equipment here looks like creatures you might find in the wetlands. Located next to the community of Applewood, this playground is also nature-inspired with rock and log features that are natural looking. If you take a short detour into the neighbourhood, you can also stop by one of the best playgrounds in the city located in Applestone park.

Mahogany TransCanada Outdoor Fitness Park - SE CN Rail Play Park
