Spring is on its way as the days get longer and the last bits of snow melt away. As you pack up your winter gear, you may be wondering what adventures the new season has for you. There are plenty of things you can do in Airdrie, just moments away from Chinook Gate and throughout the entire city.
Stroll through the park
With Chinook Winds Regional Park just beyond your own backyard, there is no shortage of four-season activities, contributing to the livability of the community.

Ride a bike
It’s time for your spring bike tune-up! Chinook Winds Park is home to 55 acres of park space with over 2 kilometres of paved pathways that provide you with tons of space to cruise along in nature. Whether you’re teaching your kids to ride or are an experienced biker looking for an easy afternoon, you can cruise along through the park and soak in the springtime sun.
-
Try skateboarding
With different challenges for all skill levels, you can roll through this skatepark to learn a new skill or perfect that trick you’ve been working on for years. Scooters, rollerblades and BMXs are all welcome, so if skateboarding isn’t for you, try some other wheeled fun!
-
Play ball
Choose your sport in one of eight ball diamonds, four beach volleyball courts and a multi-use court all open and available during the warmer seasons. Challenge your neighbours to a game or bring the family and practice the basics of something new.
-
Have a picnic
After a day full of activities, venture onto the green space with your picnic basket in tow. Take advantage of sunshades or spread out in the sun while enjoying lunch in the park. Fly a kite, read a book, or play tag in the grass in one of Airdrie’s largest parks
Try something new
Although things are warming up, the weather at this time of year can be unpredictable. If you’re itching to get out and try something new, but want to stay indoors, take advantage of Airdrie’s exciting community events.
