8 Holiday Activities in Calgary

The lagoon at Bowness Park is one of the prettiest places for outdoor ice skating in the city. It was closed last winter due to the flood, but has since reopened—just in time for the holidays. Bring your own hot dogs to roast over the open fire pits or sneak into their cafe for goodies and hot chocolate. You can rent skates on site, which is super convenient if you're bringing out of town guests.
