Do you want a beautiful view (Buena Vista), this summer?
In Diversity Travels this week, we take you to two beautiful Edmonton Parks, next to each other – Buena Vista Park and Sir Wilfred Laurier Park.
Buena Vista Park is located on the north bank of the river, adjacent to Sir Wilfred Laurier Park. Buena Vista means “beautiful view” in Spanish and is home to a large and popular off-leash dog area, and numerous multi-use trails. It is also home to Yorath House, the City’s newest rental facility, which is available for year-round bookings.
Sir Wilfrid Laurier Park, more commonly known as Laurier Park, is located in Edmonton’s west end. Situated on the north bank of the river, the park extends from Whitemud Drive in the west to Buena Vista Drive in the east.
The park is named after Canada’s eighth Prime Minister, Sir Wilfrid Laurier. It has many picnic sites, two natural playgrounds, and a boat launch are some of the amenities for users to enjoy.
