This is a really beautiful place to walk around, take a bike ride, or picnic with the family. There is plenty of parking on-site and several paved walking & bike paths. Its our favorite spot to take our yearly family photos in the fall - brilliant colors with all the trees changing.

I love how secluded this park is. It runs along the river and has great view of downtown. There are paved/gravel trails as well as grassy trails. The hills and stairs give you a good cardio burst. I can see why it's a photographers favorite.

If you like to Mountain Bike Science park boasts some stunning views, the trails rarely have people on them and some serious speed and technical trails, try squeeze the lemon xD. You can get to Rundle and Goldbar I'm guessing it's about 10 kms on pavement or gravel. Use your bell this part can be busier.
