Fantastic beginners disc golf course. The layout has been altered to red baskets making the course easier than it was previously. Now the course is all 200 to 300 foot shots. If you are an intermediate to advanced disc golfer this will be a course to practice approach shots on. On the silver layout it has a wider variety of holes. This is a well played course so expect many other golfers. The average play time for 18 holes is 1.5 hours, 2 hours if it is busy. This is also an active picnic park so expect some bystanders here and there. Before 9 am the course has very few people on it. There is also an active glow disc golf league so this is probably the best night course to play on it Calgary.

Very popular picnic park. Not many tables though so alot of people bring their own tables and chairs.

Beautiful park with lots of green space. Right on the banks of the Bow River, this park offers a lot of well maintained green spaces with many picnic benches, a disc golf course, bookable outdoor wedding venues, and a boat launch. There is a large parking lot on the East side, and a smaller one near the boat launch to the West. Adjacent to Bowness Park, there is a long loop of walking/biking trail that crosses the river in a few spots connecting both sides. There are garbage bins, bathrooms, and plenty of benches to be found.

Heard so much about this park but never had a chance until now to visit and explore. Normally I would walk around Bowness Park. I was in for big surprise to discover this place. The place is beautiful, clean and lots of well kept grassy area. The walking path are well laid out connecting to Bowness Park on one of the footbridges. There's even a Frisbee golf course to play on, well kept as well and with the right amount of trees and other Hazzard to make it challenging. I'm definitely going back to play a round with my boys. We usually play in Inglewood's Pearce Estate Park for Frisbee golf but Baker park is way better.

Great park to take your pet near the river. Great scenery and a great atmosphere. Unfortunate for us, our vehicle was broken into (passenger windows smashed) in order to take valuables (not in plain sight) from our car. It's not first time we hear about this happening at baker park, and more unfortunate no one is doing anything about it. We phoned police, park staff and it seemed to be noticed but not taken into action to avoid this from continuance. Beautiful park, but you must be extra careful not to leave anything you'd want to consider being stolen. Seems like someone is vigilent in that area.

Baker is a really attractive day use park on the north side of the Bow river, directly across from Bowness park. It has an 18 hole disc golf course, many attractive paved pathways and some great picnic tables and benches. Parking is a little limited for weekend visits but there is quite a bit of traffic flow so spots open up quite regularly. It is less busy than Bowness park so it’s a better option for a quiet stroll or lunch by the river. It can feel a little isolated late in the evening but the visitors to the park are usually relaxed and easy going. Great place to visit almost any time.

Nice West park along the Bow River. We come often, either passing by on the bike paths, or to play disc golf or to launch our inflatable boat for a day of rafting downriver.
Restrooms
Restrooms are available to the immediate West of the main parking lot
Dog-friendliness
lots of dogs, most on leashes, many splashing along the river "rocky beaches", plenty of places to drop poop bags
Picnic area
picnic areas all over the park, some with tables other with bbq pits. We just eat pastries and such, recently from the Sweet Home Bakery 10 min away by bicycle to the South.

I had an incredible experience visiting Baker Park yesterday with my friends. Despite living in Calgary for nearly two decades, it's astonishing that I had never been here before. The park may not be as expansive as others, but its stunning river view more than makes up for it. Whether it's a refreshing morning stroll or a relaxing evening walk, Baker Park proves to be an amazing choice. The serene ambiance and captivating scenery make it a hidden gem for locals and visitors alike.

Several attractions: frisbee disc golf, scenic spots for social gatherings and wedding photos with riverside background, picturesque walks, picnic tables, good washrooms and ample parking. Informative plaques illustrate and describe its history before it was a public park. There is a big boat ramp at the west end with additional parking for boat trailers. The Rotary Mattamy Greenway passes through for walkers and cyclists.

I went to Baker’s Park for a work function where we played disc golf and had a catered lunch. This was the first time I had been and overall, I am impressed. The park was perfectly manicured, clean, and there was ample parking. The park was so huge, there was plenty of room for everything the 50 people in attendance wanted to do. most impressive was the clean restrooms and diabetic sharpie containers. Well done!

I was here for a friends wedding sometime ago. This park is very beautiful with great view of the river and for photos. It also looks like a grate place for a walk bike or run by the river with not much traffic other than our group. There is tuns of space here for pretty much any thing from just sitting and enjoying the view to having fun with your friends and family throwing a ball around or more

Serene and peaceful. The washrooms were clean and well-kept. Dont forget to try out some frisbee golf. And stay away from open spaces in the areas where others may be tossing a frisbee. Best time to go is early afternoon when it's less crowded and parking is easily available. There are no playgrounds for kids in this park but the trails lead to Bowness Park, which is convenient.

Spent the morning at Baker Park on the Disk Golf Course. This course is real nice. Played the front 9. It is well marked out and set up with lights on the baskets for evening play. Quite a few other people out enjoying it, but not enough to make it busy. The park is situated along side the Bow river. There are lots of walking trails and good vantage points to snap a picture.

A hidden gem of a park right off Stoney Trail and a great spot with the family to visit many open shade spots to set up your lunch spot. Great pathways to visit alongside the river.
Restrooms
Washrooms near the parking 2 mins walk from the entrance.
Picnic area
Open areas to have a picnics with trees to provide shade on a hot summer day.

Great park, love the Disc golf course, which was recently updated with new baskets and a new layout! The park looks best in Autumn, great time and place for family Christmas photo shoots. The map located on the park as well as the info signs desperately need updating and are the only thing stopping me from giving baker a 5/5. Great park though.

A wonderful path to follow. Asphalt covered, and only a few steep areas that may require some short effort. The path is busy on nice days, so the main parking lot becomes congested rapidly. Alternative parking can be found near the western side of the park, near the boat launch. Both sides of the path connect across the river to Bowness Park.

My wife and I went for an early morning walk in the Park. It was quiet and everyone we ran into wished us a good morning. There were two people playing Frisbee Golf on the course which I understand to be quite good. We will be returning tomorrow for future walks or to play Bocci ball. A great park to spend some time alone or with family.

Huge park with a ton of space for activities. There's a permanent 18 hole disc golf course as well as 3 horseshoes pits. It's a great park for large games of capture the flag or a little game of bocce. In the summer it is a very popular park for launching boats into the river so be sure to arrive early to ensure you can find parking.

Baker Park and Bowness park are opposite each other on two sides of Bow River. There are two Bridges allowing pedestrians to walk around the river through two parks. Parking in each park. Visit both parks in one trip. See my review on Bowness park for details and pics. No entry fee no parking fee. Bring your own drinks and snacks.

Beautiful small park. Much smaller and less well known than the bowness park across the river. That means less crowded than bowness park. Good a a short walk or social gathering. There is no access to river, except boat/raft launch from the western end of park. You can also get rafts on rent over there. Park has disk golf though.

We went for a friend's wedding photos and they turned out beautifully. The atmosphere was very welcoming and the park is exceptionally maintained. There were all sorts of groups present, but no one was in each other's way looking for a "good spot" because the entire place is a great spot! Haha will definitely be back

This is a great place to bring your dog and kids. On one side there is a dog park to let your pup run off leash and on the other side there is a good sized playground for young kids. The available washroom/change rooms were also clean. However there is no change table in the washroom/change room for diaper changes.

Just our go-to place in the city especially when we could not think of other parks. It is connected to Bowness park by a well-maintained trail. We used to have a one-hour-ish hiking. The park provides large area and amenties for bbq and frisby. Pet-friendly but dogs must be kept on leash all the time.

Really nice park to head out for a walk either direction on the bow. They have frisbee golf and a nice flower section. Good spot to dip your toes in the river if your brave enough. Current is pretty strong. Bowness park is right on the other side. Better for young kods over there with lots of parks.

Baker park is a beautiful area to sit and relax or have a picnic. It is also a space selected for momentous events like grad and wedding photos. There's also a really nice frisbee golf course located here that is well sheltered from the wind by the lines of trees planted along the perimeter.

Gorgeous this time of year. Lots of parking most days. But on really busy day, cars are lined up on the street coming into the parking lot. Lots of wedding party's go here for pictures. There is a train track near by, that is how we get our kids to come. There is also a disc golf course.

This is a great park but I can tell you honestly it is haunted. This Mist was taken a photo of later in the evening when it was quite warm and it popped up all the sudden. It was not near the river it was up on the trail. This is a gorgeous Park but it should be treated with respect.

Another of my favourite Calgary parks, situated across the Bow River from the more well-known Bowness park, this little wonder has fantastic paths and trees. Super place for a walk, combined with Bowness it makes for a nice stroll with a picnic area at the end.. Or the beginning!

Beautiful, clean and a well spaced out area. I may have missed spots that you could be closer to the water or be on the edge, as we ended up on a side where you couldn't really just dip your feet in. But it's a beautiful park for pictures, bbqs and having group get together.

Amazing park! Lot of parking spots available. Easily accessible from parking spot. you can enjoy scenic view of sunset from here. you can enjoy the beautiful Bow river from here.

Beautiful park in NW Calgary. Has ample parking both in the lots and along the entrance road for overflow. Extensive paved trails to walk, picnic area, views of the river, a frisbee golf course too. Connects to Bowness Park for a 45min walking loop along the river.

Nice place along the river. Has river access, year round bathrooms, parking, frisbee golf and gets the afternoon sun. You can integrate Bowness park into a walk by crossing the bridges at either end. There are some geese that hang around and the paths can get icy.

Very nice place to go on a walk, run or just hang out with beloved ones. Enjoy the beautiful view on the bow river make some stone hopping into it have a nice picnic there are also a few nice photo spots you will not regret it to go there have a beatiful day ;-)))

Fun disc golf course! Easy to play with some technical bits to keep things interesting. There is a bathroom facility there no need to use the bushes! Soon there will be the red tees to use to keep the park environmentally sustainable. Still a fun course to play!

Beautiful park. Lot of benches for picnics. Trails are good for walking n biking. Many do fishing n boating. Lot of space for parking is available. One can spend a full day here in the park soaking in the Sun. Sparkling water in the Sun is a beauty to watch.

Very nice, medium size park right on Bow river across from Bowness park. Very clean and relatively quiet and not crowded most of the time. It has Walking and biking trail, seatings and picnic areas. You can launch your floating boat or board from it.

Fantastic well kept up and landscaped park. This rivals places like the Lethbridge Japanese Gardens, and its a free public park. I was really impressed visiting from (further south) Southern Alberta and played the disc golf course which was

Beautiful park almost all year round! Got a great disc golf course that is challenging and diverse which keeps it interesting going on two years now! It's got tree cooridoors, long drives and a good selection of technical fairways. Fun!

Beautiful with decent parking and lots of connecting paths! Also much more calming than the other parks calagry has to offer Would recommend Hoping to see a little Cafe or maybe some street food down that way this summer lol

Very good course, decent layout. Bring a bag and keep your garbage please! there isn't much for trash bins around. And it can be quite busy most of the time, common courtesy with disc golf etiquette needs to be practiced here!

Very Serene setting, lots of greenery, kids had a lot of fun ..the beautiful bow river provides the perfect photo spot.. we met the twin bears and enjoyed a fun filled picnic..played lots of games..would love to visit again.

Living here for so many years I never really took the time to experience Baker Park before. What a great place to relax for an afternoon. I'm sure over weekends this park is full but weekdays was great to experience.

We are so fortunate to have these bike pathways in Calgary along the Bow River. Incredible beauty everywhere.
Picnic area
There are a few well spaced tables in shady areas among the trees. Beautiful area.

It is an interesting park to have beautiful wedding pictures. However, the good time is to come in the morning time when there are fewer people, and not so hot outside. I personally like this park and its view.

It's a great place to start your walk around the loop through Bowness Park. It gets more crowded with the warmer weather. Then you get a lot of conflicts with the many cyclists also riding on the walking paths.

Beautiful place to go for a dog walk. Pathways and grassy areas are well maintained, and this park is much less populated than Bowness Park right across the river.
Dog-friendliness
On leash only.

Disc Golf Course is a great starter course and a great challenge for any skill level. CDGC and City working together to create an awesome space. Love that the entire 'West Barker' is licenced!

Beautiful park in the NW of the city. Connects to Bowness park. Has a disc golf area which a lot of people seem to enjoy. An off leash dog park is nearby as well. There’s also a boat launch.

This park is so beautiful! There are a lot of walking paths, it's very accessible and there is a lot of parking available! It's such a peaceful area and even has some cute bear statues.

Very well organized, clean, and relatively quiet place to have gathering with family and friends. Decent walking path where you can make a loop around Bow river. A lot of parking lots.

This is one of my favorite walks for my dog and I. Also great parking to launch a good dog walk, meet up with friends, or picnic. Has nice, clean, heated washrooms, nice river access.

One of the best parks in Calgary specially to hold out door event such us a wedding. Very beautiful views from all side. Its just across from Bowness park, on the north side.

Fun course, beautiful location next to the river, free to play! Rows of trees largely shelter the course from wind. Responsible drinking allowed (please don’t ruin this! Lol)

Beautiful Park. Parents please pick up your picnic garbage! I see Styrofoam cups, chip bags, plastic cups and cellophane on the ground....... it IS Your Job as a parent!!!!

I'll be back. Calgary has some beautiful parks along the river. This one good for seniors, children as from my short visit it has easy walk score plenty open room.

I walk my dogs ON LEASH here and it's amazing. Great walking path that is usually cleared as soon as snow falls. Great view of the river and friendly atmosphere.

Large park with beautiful landscapes. Picnic, dog and bike friendly park with access to the river. Clean restrooms. Never too crowded. Good spot for photoshoots.

Beautiful park, our commissioner picked this as the venue for our elopement wedding ceremony with our parents and we couldn't have asked for a better location.

This has to be our favourite off leash dog park in the city! Lots of parking and plenty of room to play.
Dog-friendliness
This is an off leash dog park

Took a little bbq and found a picnic table near two disc golf holes. Great place to have an evening meal with my kids. Busy - still plenty of space to play.

Love walking around Baker Park anytime of the year. Always water flowing in the river allows a brief break from winter. Great views up and down the valley.

Beautiful park by the river. Very large so easy to find a quiet table to have a picnic. We played frisbee golf The course is challenging and well maintain.

Excellent course with a little bit of everything. Great fairways, some hallways and big drives on the back 9. Can't wait until they open the blue tees!

Just a beautiful place to go for a walk and enjoy the sunshine. Always a lively spot for dog walking and people watching. No amenities so be prepared.

So beautiful specially at fall I have a video about this beautiful park in my channel if you are looking for more ❤️ Youtube: @kadiola …

Favorite park in Calgary, clean, nice grass, lots of areas to hang out in. If you are going to play discgolf, this is the place to go play!

My family loves going to baker park to play disks golf. We love that they change the course every so often which makes it new and exciting

Not a fan of the how the bathrooms are kept. But the park itself is fantastic. The disc golf course is one our favorite and really pretty

Great disc golf course, especially for beginners. Can definitely get busy, as this course is one of the most popular in north America.

This disc golf course is stunning! A must if you are in Calgary for a couple days. Very well manicured course and great lay out.

Excellent spot to walk, run, boat, paddle, bike or swim!! Just not all at once. Well, you can give it a try, if you’re talented.

Beautiful park across bow river. Always a great experience visiting this place with family. A good location for outdoor events.

Beautiful park. Watched people playing disc golf, others walking with families while some taking pictures. Lots of benches too.

A descent sized park with some pathways. Sweet spot right by the river. Great disc golf courses and a great place for picnics.

Great place to explore. Beautiful flowering trees and wide paths. Great 18 hole frisbee golf course with challenging fairways.

Nice place for biking, walking and party gathering along river side
Picnic area
There are tables but no barbeque grills

Visited this park for the first time. Really liked it.
Picnic area
Lots of benches and lots of shade to have a picnic.

Went to a glow night disc golf event. Had a blast, but some thieves took the prizes. People suck, but the disc gold is fun.

Great disc golf park. Can be quite busy, at all times of the day. Nicely laid out and has amenities on site (ie. Washrooms)

Overall it is a nice park. The park itself is maintained very well. The parking lot isnt the largest but could be worse.

Really beautiful park with lots of pathways, greenspaces and picnic benches. It was the perfect place for a fall picnic.

One of my favourite parks in Calgary. Not sure why it's called Baker Park. I'm sure anyone of any profession is welcome.

Beautiful park on both sides of the river. Very well maintained. Best for daily walks, parties and kids playing stuff.

Great park to spend time outdoors in any season. This park is famous for the disc golf. The river makes it beautiful.

Beautiful park in the city, but the washroom is so dirty, no soap , and smells urine. Floor did not mop for a year .

Beautiful park across the Bow River, it is big, with trails, great view, parking spaces and reachable walking also

Beautiful park great place for weddings, picnics, birthday party, frizby golf, biking, walking. Bird watching. ❤️

Spring is in the air! Lots of fun ahead! This year the water level in the river is really low for some reason.

Good spot to play disc golf! Well maintained course with good parking and not too busy that you feel rushed.

Much quieter than the nearby Bowness Park, but still enough people that you feel surrounded by community :)

Beautiful park!! A lot of great walking trails and great for families as there is A lot of green spaces.

Lovely green grass and beautiful view. We set up blankets and hung out with the babies for a few hours.

One of the better vantage point of Calgary's city, you can see the stampede fireworks easily from here.

Absolutely beautiful place, ideal for walking, running, picnicking and relaxing & enjoying the view ❤️

Very nice park for walk around, and do your marriage ceremony as well. Clean and quite. Recomended

Very beautiful Nice place for walking and bbq, and family gathering Great view next to the river

Beautiful, amazing disk golf course, parking is easy to navigate. My favourite park in Calgary

Love to photograph there no matter summer or winter! You can find the beauty of our Calgary!

This place is absolutely stunning and is located right at the banks of the bow river.

Such an amazing place to relax and hang out by the river. Amazing disc golf course as well!

Enjoyed a little lay out on a blanket in the sun. Was busy but plenty of room to space out.
