River Park is above Sandy Beach. Follow posted signs for dog rules and boundaries.
Looking After It
The City has been clearing out caragana here, an invasive shrub, so the native trees have more room.
Neighbourhoods Around It
Altadore is right beside it, with Britannia, Windsor Park and Elbow Park nearby. 14A Street SW runs along the park, and Glenmore Trail is just south.
