The area around Nose Hill had to be excavated to make room for the growing urban landscape.
False; the area was only mined for materials for buildings True

Nose Hill Park has a beautiful view of downtown Calgary, especially during sunsets! Super accessible trails for jogs and biking but biking through Nose Hill Park is definitely a challenge for most!

Albert Einstein once said, " Look deep into nature, you will understand everything better."
He was right. Just by identifying one organism, you can see the consequences of time, the ecosystem, and human impact. It's pretty amazing that there are many natural parks in this oil and gas city. However, having an ecosystem in a city requires lots of responsibility. In the park, there are very beautiful flowers and plants, yet one does not realize that they are invasive.
Nature is ethereal, but we must have the responsibility to take care of it

Nose Hill Park is close to home and is a great spot for us to go and walk around on weekends! It is also a great place to watch fireworks from!
Nose Hill Park, one of the largest municipal parks in Canada and North America, is located in the northwest quadrant of Calgary, Alberta. It is a natural environment park, commonly regarded as a retreat from city life and a place to enjoy nature. It is the second-largest park in Calgary, surpassed in size only by Fish Creek Provincial Park.
