Itinerary:

We will meet at the Nose Hill Park parking lot at the intersection of Brisebois Dr and John Laurie Blvd. We will walk up the hill to the middle of the park on a dirt path, and join the paved pathway at the top of the hill. There we will walk around the plateau, and then follow the paved pathway back down to the parking lot. This is a nice walk, it takes approximately one and a half hours at a slow pace. We will cover between 5 and 6.5km.

This early in the season, it is difficult to tell what the dirt pathways will be like. It could be very muddy, and could even have a little bit of ice on the path. Bring footwear that is adequate for walking along muddy trails.

Well socialized dogs are very welcome. Nose Hill is an off- leash area, but you must carry a leash and dogs must be under their owner's control at all times. In off-leash areas, this means dogs must be able to respond to their owner's voice, sound or visual commands.

Required Items to Bring:
-Sturdy foot wear
-dog leash

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

Event Directions:

From Deerfoot Trail take the McKnight West exit, and continue along McKnight until a sharp left turns changes the road to John Laurie Blvd. Drive 4.0 km along John Laurie Blvd, and the parking lot will be on your right hand side. It is at the top of Brisebois Dr NW.

From the west, take John Laurie Blvd heading eastbound, and turn left into the parking lot 0.9 km east of the Shaganappi Trail intersection.
