Reviews of Sir Wilfrid Laurier Park (Tourist Attraction)

Michael McKinney

Great park with trails and picnic tables

Leon Morris

Great out of the way park. They have a huge open area for picnics and smaller more secluded areas with picnic tables and a fire pit. Close to the river and lots of walking trails.

Ayesha Tun

So great for the family!

Vinny Dazzan

Go hit up the small mountain bike park for a good time

Kieran Mc Govern

Beautiful park with plenty of picnic tables and fire pits. Can be very busy at weekends.

Lis Marie

Such a beautiful area to explore! The trails go on for so long and seem to always connect to somewhere else, it’s incredible! You can get gorgeous views of the river and get really close. It’s such a peaceful area, lots of free parking available, I would definitely check it out!

Preet Singh

A beautiful park, lots of trees, access to North Saskatchewan River, trails, picnic tables and nice space for playing frisby.

Emori Tuinawaikoro

Grass where tables are have to be cut to make the picnic areas clean

melissa

Very big park, lots of picnic spots and areas to play alot of great walking trails plus view of the river. Very nice place to go with the kid or have a gathering, walk in the trails there is picnic spots along the trails and look out spots, lots of parking and a small play ground, and if you want you can go to the zoo. But it doesn't feel like your in the city. Highly recommended...

Curtis Zeiner

Boat launch has plenty of room. Even has a little side beach for kayaks and canoes.

Lauren

So beautiful and close to home! :)

Muneeb Dogar

Jill Tucker

The waterfront has been redone and it's very lovely. New bathrooms, new playground, not very busy.

Leann Knysh

Close to the river and zoo..great location and nicely spread out

Marc Leveille

Good path to walk and plenty of space for dogs to run and connects to other parks in area

Lo Abno

Great park. I suggest to reserve a picnic site in advance

Cheryl Bennett

Great park (off leash and otherwise). Everyone you meet along the way are friendly. Lots of trails to explore. What does it not have?!!

Khairul Robin

Great place for fall pictures

David Nette

The pathways and green areas are maintained and kept very clean! Great location along the river and boat launch area. Kudos for the park staff who continue to exceed expectations. Just a very special place for all members of your family providing wonderful reserved group accommodations for that special event. Also, having the many smaller picnic sites, with the "private" areas secluded and tucked in , with upright fire pits ready to go, was fabulous.

Panda S

Beautiful park but unfortunately the park is always overfilled with people. Great facilities and amenities, and tons of parking if you don't mind a bit of walk. Not recommended if you want to go to a park that doesn't feel like a festival.

Nora Romero

My dog love to came here . Thanks

Lilian Wong

What a jaw dropping in fall! Playground is more suitable for kids than toddler. Stroller friendly.

Ron Nault

It was so nice to see all the families walking and enjoying the park today. Some even had picnic's and fire's going. It was a great day to be out.

Nigel James

Great place for family picnics. Two big open fields for activities, and a path that sits above the river side.

Kathryn Hogan

A really pretty park to hang out and have a fire.

Wendy Ellis (Skyflier)

Beautiful park with several river valley trails. Awesome natural area. Great picnic sites with tables/firepit campstoves.

Anna BeSomething

Wow the playground is amazing. Modern and natural blends well into its environment. Must see.

KDoh Lau

Very nice winter hike especially after our during snow fall.

Percival Palania

Great bike trails and park.

Lindsey MacDonald

I really love that this park has nicely paved, shady paths as well as open, sunny fields for kids to run around in. It looks like a great spot for hosting gatherings too. The hidden gem here though is the walk along the path west /south following the river - it's so secluded here, it feels like you've gone for a weekend camping (ok, tailgate camping) while you're right in the middle of the city. So nice

Lisa Kercher

Very nice park, lots of open green space, picnic benches, covered picnic areas, and trails. The boat launch and dock is a great place to get right down on the river. Thank you for the new large washroom facilities!

Darcy Anderson

A wonderful park for a socially distanced gathering of 10.

Clancy Harder

Great place to launch your boat raft or floatation craft easy access lots of parking reservations for party picknick sites big park lots of parking and zoo parking for over flow.

James Zytaruk

City needs to get a better booking system.. otherwise it's a nice park with lots of cool things

Hamid K

Great place and very nice for short family trip, car parking is not very easy to find spot

Kellen Westman

This is a very popular dog park. If you’re planning a visit here but don’t like dogs, please be careful.

Nice stroll near the North Saskatchewan River. Recommend morning visits when parking is easier to get. Enjoy your walk ????????????‍♂️

Sue Camp

Plenty of amazing trails to explore on foot, cycling or with your furry companion.

This is a wonderful location in Edmonton, where different interest of your own can be accomplished very easily.

Katazena B

My dogs love this place. Super friendly.

Kevin Grenier

What a great location sandwiched between the Valley Zoo and the river. Spots are limited but there are areas for picnicking and games with walking paths throughout. It was good to get out and breathe some fresh air.

Sandra Gaviria-Buck

Pretty awesome playground. Surrounded by forest and a field. Lots of picnic areas and beaches around. There is a mountain bike track beside it. Lovely structures (6, I think) that are made with wood and encourage the development of the kids' physical skills. It is shaded and the ground is covered in wood chip.

Doh Lau

Great hiking trails

Jill Saunders

Great public recreational facility close to the Zoo. Excellent covered sites with abundant tables and lawn areas.

Lee Schmidt

This is a perfect park in my opinion. Large open spaces, parking, day camping, a zoo next to it with a dog park next to that. Easy to get to and lots of amenities!

Ognjen Kovic

Great park for some bbq close to downtown. The only issue is that the washrooms are usually so dirty that you do not even want to enter them.

Tammy Cooke

It's a beautiful hike, well maintained trails.

Nel Gee

The place is not only for picnics, the lake just gives a perfect place for fishing, for boating as well as for swimming I guess its not against the law.

ammour maghamez

nice place for walking and biking Hard to find washrooms

Tania Frau

We just loved this amazing park????????♥️

Rain Bautista

We had our work BBQ here and it was a very nice park. I love that they had the garbages close and that there was ample of parking spaces close to the picnic site. Enforcers actually came and checked our reservation which I like as it prevents disputes from other people.

It's good but there are better places if what you want is just walking.

Rick Yaworski

Was great,boat lauch for us to finish up our float from Devon,excellent!

Greg Cooper

Such a fun park and playground for the kids. I love that it's wood (or at least looks like it) and not plastic like all the other new playgrounds around town.

Mando McKool

Awesome trails, picnic areas , camping areas, bike trails , boat ramp , for walking n enjoying nature, great escape from this stupid quarantine. Take plenty of water, you need at least 2 days to explore everything it has to offer. Great for dogs I have 2 they will love it or go down to river n sit on stones n chill

Softy Nonowt

A nice pleasant walk.

Gemily Lubosan

Nice place for playing jogging and barbequeing

Bruce Ramstad

Been boating on the river for many years the city screwed the boat launch up so now only one person can load or unload at a time before the city touched it we could launch 10 to 20 boats at a time

Joe McMurray

Nice park for family outings, nice boat launch to the north Saskatchewan river, a lot of wildlife highly recommended.

Haytham

jackie leclaire

Huge fun park!! Lots of nature ????

Corazon Keller

One of the best parks in the City if you're looking for one where you can hold special occasions then this is the right place to be!! Very clean and quiet environment so make your best to contribute to maintain cleanliness...there's garbage bins all over the park. I'm just wondering why all this time there's only one washroom for the whole place??? But it's all good!!

Deanna Daigneault

Beautiful and peaceful!

jatinder bagga

Great place for you and your furbaby, nice trails beautiful views and riverside, only thing I did not like about this place is too much pedestrian and cycle traffic otherwise it's a must go.

Great space, looks into river. Lovely bathroom

Tanya Endall

Great picnic spot, clean washrooms, unique play structures.

Shaghayegh Abtahi

Best place for the weekends when every other parks are crowded!

Forest Littke

the park is near the valley zoo and small steps (under 100). Laurier school has built a rock snake....impressive.

Alice Siwiec

Great sites and campfire stoves, great idea for reservations during family events or outdoor picnics, clean grounds, and garbage ♻️.

Shane Crawley

Nice walking trails next time I'll bring a bike beautiful view of the river valley and the river

Kathryn Schmidt

REALLY cool playground for kids who are a little older (3+), and a little biking trail nearby. Can't see the playground from the parking lot, but it's there! Lots of walking trails to explore throughout this park and parks adjacent to it.

Roshan Duncombe

Great riding trails and awesome playground area. The kids loved it!

Charlotte D

This park has 2 unique play structures for kids. Lots of picnic areas and easy access to the river for boating and trails for walking. Only downside was the washrooms were closed for repair. Great place to enjoy the river valley.

Cheyla Bossert

Great park to take the dogs for a walk. Lots of off-leash parts too which is perfect.

Nice place for family picnic, (parking is limited)

Jason Smeltzer

Had to do work there. Nice quiet park with trails beside the river. Boat launch on to the river. Day use picnic areas with bbq pits

Charles Lendzion

Had a very pleasant BBQ with my family. While the park was busy we were able to find a quiet secluded spot and able to enjoy each other's company

Matt Rigby

Very accessable boat launch, and accommodating trailer parking. Very busy on weekends, recommend arriving early for launch use.

arvind bharti

Very nice and clean picnic spots. Walk by the river.

Zakia Naqvi

Wonderful place for social gatherings. Highly recommended for families with children. You can find Snake ???? there. In our 5 hours stay we found 2 snakes.

Kaye Batacan

Picnic site 4 was available when we visited the park, and it was amazing. Cozy, private grounds just enough for our family. We were able to practice social distancing as well because of its location

Brennan James

Great park hidden behind the zoo.

Raymond Los

I went there for some peace of mind, a little reading and a stroll. Very peaceful and relaxing. Very quiet as the day was blustery and the kids are back in school.

Noel Querijero

Had a picnic last Saturday. Place was nice with lots of room for kids to play. We were able to prepare barbecue and other foods. Going around the park were tables set among the trees which provides lots of privacy for the users. It also connects to the white mud and buena vista dog off leash area. Walking further east leads to Hawrelak Park. The washrooms are nice and clean although located near the entrance. Parking is quite limited though and some people reserved their parking by leaving a table on the space. Hope they could provide power outlets; a washroom at the other side of the park.

Herman Borkent

Nice trail along riverbank, much of it shady. Picnic areas for large groups or small. It’s next to the zoo.

Audra Flanagan

I work with senior citizens and we all love the viewing and seat down area by the river .I bring a pillows to sit on and snacks ????. We enjoy ???? birds, the like minded Edmonton people and the dogs ???? ????

Craig McCartney

We love taking our dogs here. Nice scenery. Very spacious. A lot of area to walk. Overall, beautiful

Lots of things to do. Very clean and surrounded by the river and nature
