Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Look for the Yellow Ford Focus
Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Look for the Grey Toyota Camrey
A short easy walk on a fire road up Mockingbird Hill to a lookout where you are treated to a 360 degree panoramana view. Obviously, this trail is very popular of its short length and proximity to campgrounds and youth camps.
Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Northeast Corner, Look for the Yellow Ford Focus
A fairly easy forest trail (hikers only) leads to Jumpingpound Ridge Trail from where it is inly a short step to the summit of Jumpingpound Mountain – a superb panoramic viewpoint. Even after the snow flies and a biting wind sweeps across the upper slopes, a packed trail testifies to its popularity. Possibly, this is because it is by far the shortest rout to the summit.
Description: The Grass Pass is raked by warm Chinook winds, which makes grassy Grass Pass a popular year-round objective, even though a fairly strenuous trail up Pack Trail Coulee, one ends up with awesome views. With longer daylight hours we will extend the walk to connect with Gunnery Creek to make a loop. Naming Note: Pack Trail Coulee and Grass Pass were in local use during the 1930s and 40s and were finally made official in 1980.

This 6 kilometer one way hike into the famous and scenic Ink Pots and surrounding meadows. The Ink Pots are mineral rich pools with the interesting colors that are breathtaking! The blue-green color of the ponds never ceases to amaze and the mountain scenery surrounding is nothing short of spectacular. So, what are the Ink Pots? The Ink Pots are a series of five cool springs where spring water percolates up through the sand and gravel.

Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Northeast Corner
This long and popular trail follows a spectacular valley hemmed in the cliffs to Ribbon Falls. The trail will follow the well behaved Ribbon Creek, its rapids and waterfalls at their best after the June rains and snow melt.
Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Northeast Corner. Look for the Grey Toyota Camry.
A more challenging trip to loop over and around Nose Hill
A short and popular trail from Canada’s highest navigable pass into alpine meadows below Mt. Rae. With most of the height gain occurring with the first kilometer, this trail is no easy stroll; there’s some uphill work to be done before you reap your reward.
Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Look for the Grey Toyota Camry.
“The Taylor Lake trail is one of the most accessible hanging valley lake trails along the southwest side of the Bow Valley between Banff and Lake Louise. It is every bit as scenic as its sister lakes and offers the bonus of two attractive side trips from its shores” (Canadian Rockies Trail Guide, Bart Patton and Brian Robinson)
Weaselhead Park Parking, 90th Avenue and Oakmount Dr. S.W. (Drive 2.9 kilometres west of 14th St.)

A moderate hike with a great view!
Edworthy Park, North Parking Lot, Northwest Corner
Look for the White Ford Explorer
Description: The Rockbound Lake trip is a rather rigorous 8.4 kilometers hike carrying the hiker high behind the ramparts of Castle Mountain to the snow-fed waters of two distinctly different tarns, one a placid and green mirror fringed by a pleasantly open subalpine forest and meadowland; the other a cold, grey sheet of water contained within a basin of steep scree slopes and massive, tumbled boulders. Much of the trail to the lakes is quite a steep access road. If we time it just right, we may see the larch trees in all their glory.
