Wedgewood Ravine

Fun downhill and a good workout on the uphill. Much improved since it was an abandoned road full of potholes.

Westridge Park

Highlight • Rest Area

This park is in the Westridge neighbourhood and has an area of 5.36 ha. The neighbourhood of Westridge, developed in the 1970s, extends into the river valley. Prior to residential development, the area was home for 35 years to Wolf Willow Farm. Because of this, all street names in Westridge begin with the letter "W," many names beginning with the words "wolf" or "willow."
