Henrietta Muir Edwards Park is a beautiful river valley park set along the North Saskatchewan River, with a mix of open green space and mature forest. Paved and unpaved trails connect to the wider valley network, with viewpoints overlooking the river and access to nearby footbridges. The park also features a historic home linked to Henrietta Muir Edwards, adding cultural significance to its natural setting.

Emily Murphy Park, nestled along the south bank of the North Saskatchewan River, is a beautiful spot with picnic areas, a playground, a small boat launch, and open grassy areas that lead down toward the river. In winter, its toboggan hill becomes a local favourite, adding to its year-round appeal for families and casual outings.

Groat Bridge spans the North Saskatchewan River, carrying traffic and pedestrians between the river valley communities of Glenora and Mayfair. Opened in 1955, the twin-span structure offers fantastic elevated views of the surrounding parkland. Recent upgrades have widened its shared-use path, making it a key crossing for both commuters and recreational users.

From Wikipedia: "The Dudley B. Menzies Bridge is a dedicated LRT bridge crossing the North Saskatchewan River in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. Named after Edmonton engineer and politician Dudley Blair Menzies, the bridge was the "first concrete segmental box girder bridge in Western Canada".[2] The main deck carries two tracks of the LRT system connecting Government Centre station and the University station. A walkway for pedestrians and bicycles hangs beneath the main spans of the bridge over the river."

Terwillegar Park, formerly Riverbend Park, lies in a bend of the North Saskatchewan River, west of Rhatigan Ridge neighbourhood. In the early 1900s this land was used for ranching and later, as a gravel pit. When the area was restructured as a park, the gravel pits were turned into ponds and trails. Over the years, the area was commonly identified by this name. The park's development plan calls for picnic and winter sports areas, an administration building, a nature centre, a boathouse and a number of trails that connect with existing river valley trails. Terwillegar Park is west of the Riverbend subdivision and has an area of 174.88 ha.

Emily Murphy (1868-1933) was the first female police magistrate in the British Empire (1916). The City's Names Advisory Committee originally decided to name the park "Janey Canuck," Murphy's pen name, but Murphy's daughter convinced the committee to change the name before it went to City Council. Murphy was born in Ontario and came to Edmonton in 1907. Already a popular author, she lobbied for provisions in the Dower Act that entitled a woman to part of her husband's estate. She campaigned for female suffrage, and became a judge in 1916. Her efforts in the Persons Case, as part of the Famous five, saw women legally declared to be "persons," giving women the right to become members of the Senate. Emily Murphy Park is located in the river valley and has an area of 11 ha.

Henrietta Louise Edwards (née Muir), women’s rights activist, reformer, artist (born 18 December 1849 in Montreal, Canada East; died 9 November 1931 in Fort Macleod, AB). Henrietta Edwards fought from a young age for women’s rights and education, as well as women’s work and health. She helped establish many movements, societies and organizations aimed at improving the lives of women, and was instrumental in passing Alberta’s Dower Act in 1917. She was also one of the Famous Five behind the Persons Case, the successful campaign to have women declared persons in the eyes of British law. However, her views on immigration and eugenics have been criticized as racist and elitist. She was named a Person of National Historic Significance in 1962 and an honorary senator in 2009.
