The sophisticated city that grew out of the Canadian West, Calgary balances the modern and the traditional with pioneer charm. For the full western experience, show up in time for the annual Calgary Stampede, complete with rodeos. Year-round you'll find abundant shopping, dining and nightlife; a short drive away are some of Canada's finest national parks.

This is a great place to go if you want to spend a couple of hours learning about world War one and two and other Wars that the Canadian army fought and there's also a navy and air force museum connected to it and you don't have to pay for it separately it's included in the regular admission so I recommend it

Calgary Sandy Beach Park

Reviewed By nickd18 - Calgary, Canada

We decided to do an urban walk from Inglewood to Glenmore Park on the city bike path system. Along the way we found many wonderful parks, grasslands, marshes, playgrounds, and public spaces. One of these was the one at Sandy Beach. What a perfect area for a group picnic.
