Parks & Trails

As Blackfalds is such a rapidly growing community with so many children and youth there are a variety of parks and playgrounds for recreational use. New in 2004, Tayles Park is located on Gregg Street beside the Fire Hall. The Tot Lot is located on the corner of Aspen Drive and is geared towards tots, with lots of structures specific to the little ones. Centennial Park, located just off Panorama Drive in the newly developed Panorama Estates, is a park with the modern family in mind. Planning is in place for soccer fields, natural areas, and a playground making this a beautiful area for tossing a ball around with the kids, relaxing over a picnic, or taking the dog for a leisurely stroll. In a similar style as the rapid growth in Blackfalds there are walking trails continually being expanded to wrap the Town with beautiful paths to bike, walk, jog or stroll on. The Skateboard Park is set for construction in 2005 and is being built in "street skateboard style". Slated for construction in 2006 is the Water spray park, an interactive spray park with activity centers for youth aged 2-12.
