Riley Park

Riley Park is a mature, beautifully kept park with large lawns, cricket pitches, a wading pool in summer and a formal garden that is a favourite for walks and photos. It is the green heart of the community. SAIT and the University of Calgary are both close by, as is Foothills Medical Centre, Alberta's largest hospital, which makes Hillhurst popular with students, faculty and health care professionals.
