Land OwnerCity of Calgary
This trail connects Edworthy Park to Paskapoo slopes (via a pedestrian underpass of Sarcee Trail) . Each end starts off with an easy flat doubletrack adjacent to the railroad, but the middle section is narrow singletrack with a decent 60 climb and a some root gnarl in the trail. Near the midpoint the single track pops out to the near railroad but then goes back into the bush immediately. The entire trail is on the south side of the rail tracks and does not cross the tracks at any time. Mutil use in the city, so watch for dog walkers and hikers.
Access Info
Edworthy park at one end, Pedestrian underpass to Bowdale crescent at the other end.

Recent CP Rail incidents are preventing users from accessing this trail (subject to $600 fine for trespassing) - any plans for a replacement that stays out of the rail track right of way?

Nice ride overall but some really narrow spots, be careful for sure

Started at Ed worthy park and headed to COP for a ride. On the way back I was stopped by a police officer. Apparently private property. Forced me to route back through bowness to get back.
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
