About this Event
The invention of the tank, The Blackfoot Trail, a murderer on the run for this life?! History, mystery - this walk has it all!
Meet the locals who called this area home, learn about the towns and businesses that predated the communities of Applewood and Penbrooke, meet an American outlaw on the run for M**der and discover the truth behind the site known as Devil’s Playground. Please note that this is a long walk (about a 3.5 km loop). A great family event for ages 12 and up!
Keep in mind that Elliston Park has two entrances. We’ll meet at the entrance off of 17th Avenue and 60th Street SE (you’ll see the windmill). Look for the tour guide by the intrepretive signage near the parking lot.
YOUR WALK LEADER: Shelly McElroy - a local historian. 2022 Historian in Residence for Calgary Public Library and Heritage Calgary.
NOTES: Steep slopes, uneven terrain, breaks offered along the way, no dogs please - except service dogs
