Reviews of MacKinnon Ravine Park (Park)

Colby

MacKinnon Ravine Park is a great place to go for a long walk or bike ride any time of the year. There are plenty of trails that are accessible from a variety of neighbourhoods. You can also head right down to the waterfront of the North …

Great place. Definitely go here!

Mehul Myra

Very nice and calm place to be

Lis Marie

Such a beautiful area with incredible scenery! It was so peaceful and the path goes on for so long and eventually connects to the be right beside the river! There's parking available in the neighbourhoods and has very easy access to get to the ravine park!

Dan Schykulski

This is a really nice place for a walk or a bike in the middle of the city

Razz Matazz

Great views and beautiful place for a family day out & BBQ ????♨️????

Brent Calaway

Stroll through the river valley, pick a spot and grill up some burgers. Take a turn and go up the small ravines if you want. You have my permission.

Mirmahdi Rahgoshay

Great for walking

Guantanamera Pineda

Wonderful for a good walk with the family

Dave Marshall

Nice river trail system worth a look

Tamara Lynn

Its definitely more of a walking trail park than a picnic friendly park. There's lots of foottraffic, and beaches on a sloped hill with little fire grills, but it gave us more exercise than we wanted for a simple blanket on grass picnic.

krzysztof mruk

Nice park close to river Nicely situated I did my part building it

Роман Кузнецов

Plenty of room to walk and trails to explore. The scenery is beautiful! It can get pretty busy on some parts but again, plenty of green grass to walk through if needed. Lots of hills so be prepared for a bit of a work out !

Antoine Boussombo

B Dro

How was it? We both know the answer to this, looka dem stars!

Luis Mendez

Dont remember being there lol. Nice time anyway

Dust Fart

Great place to bring the family for a picnic or suntan with views of the Saskatchewan River. As a cyclist , I love starting at the Stony Plain road entrance and speed cycling down the whole section since it's a downward path till you get to the river. They also have BBQ pits ! Be prepared though , if the weather is good then it will be packed. But that's like most parks in the River Valley.

Shawn Nelson

Beautiful!!!

Greg Todd

Nice area and very clean, not too crowded on a weekend. Goes on for a while you could walk for hours, one of the more scenic walks in Edmonton

Neil Crouse

Good scooter ride threw the valley, trees are amazing this time of year. 0Only problem is it's nice and colorful for two weeks, then bare as .... for the rest of winter,..

Jeff Lowder

I lo e the river valley walks along the river

Ned Yeung

This is a lovely place to get away with easy access.

Kol Berg

Amazing lookouts!

John B

Nice area for a walk or picnic

Steven Osterlund

This is one of my favourite place to start my walks, hikes, and bike rides. You can travel the paved trail until your feet bleed or until you get to Rundal park, which ever happens first. There are great paths to hike through which also double as single track trails to be ridden by bike. There is a trail that heads south off of the main trail and will connect you to Mackenzie ravine and the wooden walk way. During the winter parts this trail becomes very icy and has some fairly steep areas to climb and during the summer you will need to cross a few areas that have streams the run through it.

Debbie Ha

Connects to government hill park. Great view of the river valley especially in the fall.

Jillybean C

Gorgeous scenery walking through the river valley

zandro angsioco

My favorite park

Tony Yang

beautiful place to have a walk in a fall afternoon

It's a park

bharat mahey

Beautiful place to spend good time with family and nature

Rod Mcpherson

Awesome place great trails

Lisa Kercher

The trail is packed gravel, and slopes gently down toward the river. Which makes for a heart-pumping climb out! There are a few access points, some with stairs, and one with a steeper incline. I would rate this trail technically easy, with moderate traits. Dogs are permitted on leash.

D. W.

It's a relatively busy park but there is tons of space to sit and chill

Henry Villamor (henner)

Awesome section of the rivervalley. Perfect for walks, even better for picnics. Two modes of access, you can go through Groat road and there is parking. You can also park close to 142 street. You can see downtown from the trail, and what looks like Wayne Gretzky's house looking up.

Graham Fortin

Beautiful area, and lots of great picture spots. Worked as a good spot to propose too (:

Micheal Jones

Great for an afternoon walk/bike ride or picnic

Pedro-Adolfo Sequeira

Nice!

Edgar Perez

Perfect place to spend an afternoon.

David Mackintosh

Beautiful long downhill swoop into the river valley -- as long as you don't mind the uphill return. Lots of trails and exits from the main paved path. If you're on a bike have a bell installed!

James Doherty

Beautiful views

Kirk Dewhurst

Beautiful green space with a great walking trail. This park has no washroom facilities and no picnic benches. That being said it is a wonderful walk down the ravine that leads directly to the North Saskatchewan river. And then connects with Government House Park. This area is part of the larger river valley parkway. It’s a good idea to bring a blanket to sit down on and enjoy the river valley scenic area. No picnic sites here but a short walk to Government House Park and there is lots of picnic tables there. Awesome area to explore.

Kristie Wiwad

One of my favorite sections of the river valley, especially in the summer. Beautiful!

Myron Pyzyk

Great place for walking or biking, any time of the year. Lots of greenery. Right @ North Sask. River.

Adam Roy

One of the unsung stretches of Park in our glorious River valley.

Simon

Beautiful place, very expansive, and worth the difficulty you will have finding parking.you can catch concerts that are playing across the river at Keiler Point, or whatever it has been renamed to. Come here and get fit, you will be blown away by the scenery!

Adam Corazza

This ravine is good for commuting from west side to downtown. 10 minute bike and you're downtown. Some moderate hills, but mostly a slight slope down to the river. Clean and free of garbage thrown around. There are also barbecues available to have a nice dinner with a nice view.

ghazal dastournejad

It is really peaceful place to visit. I enjoyed being there.

Corey

Great park

Danielle Folk

Very pretty place right beside the river and just up the path you can walk through one of edmonton's wealthiest neighborhood. It has walking trails fire pits and picnic benches and leads you straight into downtown edmonton.

Beautiful park in the fall. The Edmonton river valley is very scenic place to be when the leaves turn colours. Close to hawrlak park, Emile Murphy park is a quiet place to go when you need a break from the hustle and bustle of festival season in Hawrlak park.

Good single track mountain bike trails.

Pat King

Good peaceful walking, quiet and full of birds, friendly people with dogs. A great place to unwind.

Amanda Bagley

Great place for a walk, jog or run or bike ride. City of edmonton takes pretty good care of the pathways in the winter so they are not too icy and cleared of snow. Trails connect from west edmo ton all the way to city center down town. Ideal to hop on these paths and bike your way to kinsman for a work out then home again in the summer.

Nick Chrapko

Autumn leaves

Holly and Doug

Lovely trails, nice scenery of downtown, the river. Beautiful in the fall.

Wasif Ali

Worth spending a day

Chris K

Love going for walks through here!

Devon Wilson-schwartz

Excellent place to have a picnic with the family. There is bike path and fields to play in. It has picnic benches where no bears in green hats will steal your pincanic baskets with a side kick named booboo. There is also places to make hot food by fire located at each picnic bench, best to bring own fire wood unless you do not mind the walk to find wood to burn.

Gunnar Blodgett

A gentle downhill slope from 142 Street and Stony Plaon Road into the river valley west of the Groat Bridge, the MacKinnon Ravine connects easily to River Balley Road and not so easily to Buena Vista Park.

Brad S

Paved multi-use trails. Garbage cans available. Picnic table area by the river.

yames ble

One of the most beautiful places in edmonton

Bert McKeen

Good place to go for a walk

A Nelson

Lovely place to go for a walk or bike ride, no matter the weather. Nice paved paths are cleared in the winter, and wind along the path of the river. Picnic sites abound, with fire pits for barbecuing. Paths diverge up into the city a various points, so access is easy; from Groat Road, 132 st, 142st and 149th there are access points. Many places to dip into the woods on natural paths as well, some of which are fantastic for biking.

Kevin Nagle

Just enjoy it so peaceful place, let your mind at peace

Mona Inda

The park is beautiful! Spend some time here. Walking biking. The area has lots of running groups & cycling groups. Dogs are everywhere. I think everyone in the neighborhood has at least one.

Beautiful!!

ifunanya ugwu

I can't understand why there aren't "working" washrooms! I mean one has to walk all the way to either Victoria Park or Emily Murphy Park to use a washroom. I don't want to imagine what individuals with incontinence or the elderly would have to go through if they have to "go". Even some younger age groups. Jeez! Let's not forget pregnant women!......Its really a matter of concern!

ch ahmed jameel

No permanent washroom Only diposible

Harnoor Dhaliwal

I just love this place

Dan Ward

Been visiting this area since i was a kid and now i bring my kids. Great view. Plenty of room for everyone to walk/ride/run.

Rebecca Szoladi

Best view of the city! ????

The Souvlakinator

the park mainly consists of a long stretch of asphalt to walk and commute on. it has small trails that veer off along the way, one that will loop in to hawrelak park. there is a main park area with BBQ and picnic tables by groat road but bridge construction currently is occupying the parking lot until sometime in 2020.

Sandy Fisher

A bit of a strange corridor in the city... It would be much better for a road.

Russell Dean

Good place to just get away from the wife,by taking my kids to the Park and leaving them there especially when we live in the house next to it... Happiness is being ALL ALONE for even the most unhappiest guy.

Jody Trush

Beautiful view
