Reviews of Popson Park (Tourist Attraction)

Kevin McBeath

Another hidden gem.

Andrey Taskaev

This has been a favorite place of mine for years, and it has been improved in quite a few ways in that time period. Do watch out for rattlesnakes though... I primarily visit the river shore line, and it's such a tranquil walk. It feels quieter and wilder than other river access areas. I also recently discovered there's a small campground here! It's a nice area, so definitely worth checking out in the future.

Mike Kennedy

It's a nature lovers paradise, great trails to explore, camp kitchen for rentals it's a great place to just have lunch.. see snakes :)

Brix played with a bunch of different dogs. The park doesnt have fences but it's still safe.

Jesse Wilcox

Went for a good walk along the river. Nice park. 41 years in Alberta, yet never seen a rattlesnake. Still haven't. But lots of wild animals.

Ad Shields

A beautiful park! The shelter is great for parties!

Stuart Beezer

Great place to take your dog

Blaine Watts

Very peaceful and relaxing. Damn good view

Darren Williams

Great off leash area. Watch for rattlesnakes in the summer.

BD KB

I would give this place a 5 star review but the people using this park have zero respect for their surroundings. You can’t look anywhere without seeing trash on the ground.

sarah gruber

Its very nice and open for taking pictures like we did. Not a lot of shade however. Great for kids that are energetic and need to burn off some fuel. Great for parents.

Simon Sharpe

This is a lovely but undeveloped park. Be prepared to walk down into the valley and then back up again

Tyson Forsyth

This place is absolutely beautiful. An amazing spot to watch the sun rise and set. I like to come here to view the stars and meteor showers when I can. The amenities are very nice if you are going to have a gathering or picnic of any kind. The paths are good for a morning jog or just walking the dog. And a good place to enjoy the wildlife of southern Alberta.

DEB LEIN

Beautiful and quiet.

steven donnelly

Great off leash park

Cheryl Rich

Nice outdoor experience

Chad Englot

Nice place to hangout when flights get cancelled. Well worth the drive out there.

R Kelly

Cute little hidden gem. Some sketchy people hanging around in the parking lot.

Sam Yam

A hidden gem in Lethbridge!

Byron Parker

Nice place, could be better maintained but overall a nice place to experience nature

Hayley Mitchell

I missed the turn and I drove like an idiot.... I'm so sorry

Matthew Blair

The park is well kept. I don't know what else to say. For improvements, a paved hill down to the park would be awesome.

Alexander Ivan

Well well well.. We meet again, Google reviews. Yes it's a good park. Sometimes you can hear a good bark. Woof woof.

Thomas Lister

A quick getaway in nature just out my back door!

Beautiful scenery, had a great time with my family.

Clayton ChiefBody

Nice place to hold a family or business event. Clean kitchen.

Jess Stahl Murphy

Great morning for a walk!

Nice place to take your dog for an off leash adventure, the river is great to cool them down in the summer.

Chris Sokolowski (Soko_179)

Good dog park

Rebecca Dyck

Beautiful scenery!

Trisha Huff (QUEENBISHTRISH666)

Beautiful view, clear ankle deep water. Great place to bring the dogs

Paul Piedalue

This is my zen. So peaceful a hidden gem.

Megan Miller

Beautiful Coulee walks. Drive down the steep Coulee side for easy walking access to the river bottom. Large off leash dog park area.

Colby Preston

Great off leash park for dogs. Have to watch out for coyotes and snakes. But hey a little danger spices things up. Take your dog here and have a blast

Jack Stowage

I always make a stop at popson - fresh water for the dogs and off leash too of course. Grab a x2 x2 before you stroll in at that new timmies. Bam! what a day.

Pete Heck

Nice spot for a quick walk. Very popular place to take the dog for a walk.

Karl Airey

Great off leash dog park

Mat Stuart

Kind of a mediocre park. Really nothing to see or explore. It's wide open as far as the eye can see. Good for walking the dogs though I guess.

Catnumber 15

Should be called pupson park

Tanvir Ahmed Fuad

Great place to enjoy the old man river water. Not so deep. You can walk across the river

Nathan Mclean

Too many mosquitos and dog sh*t everywhere.

Kim Siever

Great place to get away, but the city keeps creeping closer to the park’s edge. Once upon a time, you could see the stars so clearly, but urban sprawl has been interfering with star gazing.

Dayn Rees

Off leash was awesome for the pups! Beware of snakes and mud

Brian Gray

Popular dog park

Brennan Campbell

Great place to off leash the dogs and to launch onto the river for a float

Brad Fleming

Not much room for parking, but a great dog park. Watch out for rattlesnakes during the summer

Ryan Milne

Great place for off leash and always a good group of owners

Manny Cross

Great place to go for a chill walk with your dog. Usually other dogs to play with without being too crowded, and the scenery is beautiful. Not as nice in the early spring as it gets very soggy. If you have a hard time keeping your dog out of water, beware the river! The water is gorgeous and you can walk right along the edge on the rocks. Two parking lots, accessible for strollers.

Jiminy Niggles

Great place for the dog????????☺️. A busy place, more than dog owners come. Our dog is social and has to say hi, everyone is friendly to her even when she sneaks off to say hi to another dog coming to the park, or anyone in that matter.

Daniel Alberto Oseguera Carrancá

Excellent for family outing.. bring the dogs!!

Phoenix Knife

A nice place to get away from the frenzied gatherings like Indian Battle. But the pet-people who don't clean up after their animal is truly disgusting. But I was able to find coal in the river which in itself was an amazing find for the town of Lethbridge.

Colleen Randall

Great place to walk very pleasant

Randy Peters

Not a whole lot to see here, but if you want to get out of the city for a little walk by the river this a good place to go.

Mahayarrahh Livingstone

Visited the Observatory. A very educational place. Learn about astronomy..

Leanne G

So much fun

Jaylene L

My favourite place to take my dog.

Carly

An amazing off leash dog parked tucked into the south western tip of Lethbridge. I've visited the north side dog park hundreds of times and decided to branch out last week. Was worth it! You and your dog(s) can access the Old Man River with ease. Walking trails are grave. There is one very large loop you can walk, and a few paths leading off of it. Park is tucked away from any residential or commercial areas - so along with a nice secluded nature feel, it's safe for off leash dogs as well.

Eric Saban

Nice loop to walk the dogs with lots of space and access to river on hot days

Michele Rode

Our dog had an amazing time hanging out with all her friends ????

Ross

Great place for a quiet walk

Dean Sansome

Great park a little flat but nice for a walk with the dog

Leth Bell

Not sure if there are washrooms.

brady hway

Favourite dog and health walk in the city

Jessie Fournier

Good for dog owners

Jackson Morrison

Beautiful Coulee river bottom views. Pristine river water for dogs to drink and swim in. Occasionally you will find a porcupine near the big trees at the river, but that little fella stays pretty high up. Look up and across the river at Sun set to see some beautiful mature mule deer bucks. Lots of really well behaved dogs and owners. Very diverse crowd. Our mature Golden retriever and 3 legged Heins 57 always find lots of awesome dogs to burn off the energy with. I haven't had any snake encounters, but they are around, so use common sense.

Heidi Degraff

Nice and peaceful. Good place to relax.

teagan N

Great dog run, dogs can swim and play, not a challenging walk, no fenced in area

Paul Twigg

Fun but river is very slow if you are going to float.

Thomas Graham

Got stuck in the snow

Charles Lendzion

Sage, our boxer, lives it

Steve W

Nice place for a walk. Watch out for the rattlesnakes

Anthony Whelpton

Beautiful riverside off leash dog park right on the edge of town on the west side. My dog loves tromping through the water and playing with other dogs. Watch out for rattlesnakes when it’s warm out!

Annette Clarke

Awesome as always.

HS Oh

Here is the best place where you must come. Just keep in mind, the road is “unpaved.”

travis haynes

I have always loved this park. Its less crowded and a great place to get the kids or dog into the water to cool off.

Ed Roberts

Nice relaxing scenic walk.

Dennis Bramley

Great place to hike but dogs with bad behavior like to jump in my car while I snacking on pizza. The dog owner was not concerned at all. I will not hike there again due to the dogs.

nascar canman

Great park within 10 minutes of my house. Slow river for the dogs and nice and quiet. Unfortunately the beavers have all but destroyed the tree population. Shame, the trees are so rare around the prairie.

Corey Cahoon

Lots of fun with dogs and children. Not overly crowded.

Brian Rolfson

This is a family favourite for us to explore and play. Great for walks.
