SaveThe Paskapoo Slopes [a.k.a. Eastlands] area is east [] of Canada Olympic Park, south of the Trans-Canada Highway, west of Sarcee Trail and north of Cougar Ridge. The trails have been roughed-in and updated over the last couple of decades, and have been the site of many racing events. It's one of the hidden gems of Calgary, lots of twisting singletrack that is surprisingly buff.
Primary Trail Type: Cross-Country
AKA: Eastlands
Land Status: City Managed
