Whether you’re looking for a morning jog to start the day or a leisurely evening stroll, living in Legacy offers a refreshing experience for those who love to stay active. You’ll find a network of beautiful walking and running routes waiting for you in and around the community. We’ve compiled a few of the top spots to explore, and you can access the routes on Google My Maps HERE.
Environmental Reserve
Nestled in the picturesque Pine Creek Valley just south of our community, the 300-acre environmental reserve stands as one of our area’s true gems. This scenic walking trail winds along the ridge, offering breathtaking views of the expansive green space below, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in nature—all just steps from your backyard.
Legacy Loop
Take advantage of the water features within the heart of our community by running the Legacy Loop. With park benches along the way to stop and enjoy the view of both storm ponds, this loop is especially beautiful during the summer season when the fountains are on full display.
Sunset Point Community Loop
Nicknamed (for good reason) “Sunset Point” by members of the community, the SE side of the environmental ridge provides the perfect vantage point for an evening run. Take in the whole community loop, and end your journey at the point to take in the epic view.
Wolf Willow Fish Creek Park & Bow River Loop
Living in south Calgary means access to one of the most beautiful provincial parks in Alberta – Fish Creek Park. An expansive meadow loop in the park is only a 10-minute drive or a scenic 1-hour walk from Legacy. It’s the perfect retreat for birdwatchers, hikers, and runners seeking a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle of the city.
