Prince's Island Park

Prince's Island Park covers nearly 50 acres and is popular with visitors looking for a scenic walk. Cottonwood-lined trails attract walkers and bikers alike, while regular festivals and an outdoor theater entice culture vultures. Simply follow the footbridge across the Bow River to the stalls of Eau Claire Market for food. Visitors and residents alike enjoy the park in all seasons, praising its peace and quiet as well as its beauty.

It is part of the Bow River pathway and hiking trail system that runs along both sides of the river. The river's southern arm has been landscaped, while the island's eastern end has been transformed into a wetland environment. The park is frequented by Canadian geese and mallard ducks. A number of footbridges as part of the Bow River pathway provide primary access to the island, and vehicles have limited access via the Prince's Island Causeway, which connects to the corner of Eau Claire Ave and 6th Street and delivers traffic to the west end of the island.
