Explore Sunnyside side streets, the Bow River Pathway, and soak up the best views in Calgary on this inner-city trek. Grab a pre-hike coffee on Kensington Road before walking to the impressive Poppy Plaza war memorial. Continue east along the Bow River Pathway and cross the tubular Peace Bridge, a pedestrian bridge that accommodates both walkers and cyclists in harmony. Designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava, the bridge was built to accommodate the 6,000-plus users per day. Functional and artistic, it is a testament to the city’s commitment to increasing its residents’ pleasure in walking and cycling.
