St. Albert Trails
March 30 @ 10:15 am – 3:00 pm MDT
This weeks hike will be in St. Albert along both sides of the Sturgeon River. The city trail is well-developed and maintained year-round, so it’s a good choice during the mucky month of April. Additionally, Frank will be dusting off his “historical tour” notes on St. Albert.
St. Albert has a great trail system. They are likely to be cleared but throw your grippers in your car just in case. If the coming storm stays longer than predicted, updates including cancellation, will be communicated. Washrooms are available at St. Albert Place (5 St. Anne Street, St. Albert). Please meet in front of the main doors for St. Albert Place (south side of the building) at 10:15. The hike will leave promptly at 10:30, total length will be 8-9 km, and pictures from April 7th, 2024. There is a huge free parking lot at St. Albert Place.
As an aside, Frank leads a historical tour of St. Albert. A small portion of this hike will follow this program with Frank pointing out a few highlights. If interested, ask him about accessing a self-guided version of the full tour.
