Elliston Park is home to Elliston Lake, the second largest body of water in Calgary. There are a couple of walking loops around the lake, an off-leash dog area, playgrounds, including an accessible or inclusive playground, picnic tables, a rose garden, and a sundial. Calgary’s Globalfest Fireworks competition is held in Elliston Park each year.
Home to many waterfowl, from ducks, loons, and gulls to the occasional Canada geese, the park was named after the Ellis family in 1995.
An RC boats group meets here a couple times a week, though meetups were less frequent during covid restrictions.
