Recreation

Last updated:

One of the most distinctive features of the area is its intricate system of pathways and greenspace.  This includes a paved pathway along the river, which is popular with bicyclists, roller-bladers, walkers and cross-country skiers. 

It also includes several other off-road paths that criss-cross the community and link parks and neighbourhoods. 

Additional outdoor recreation facilities include city-operated splash pads and ice rinks.

The community also has two indoor recreation facilities.  The Bob MacQuarrie Recreational Complex (1490 Youville Dr.) features an aquatic centre, arenas, a fitness centre, meeting rooms and halls. The Roy G. Hobbs Community Hall (109 Larch Cres.) acts as a seniors’ centre and provides a space for various activities.
