About This Park

Silver Spring Island Off-Leash Dog Park in Calgary is a fantastic spot for furry friends to enjoy some outdoor fun! Located near Bow Lagoon Bridge on the Bow River Pathway, this official dog park offers a wealth of amenities for dogs and their owners. Enjoy the freedom of the off-leash area, where your pup can run, play, and even take a dip in the designated swimming area. The park features a shaded area to relax, nearby free parking, and stunning dog-friendly trails for leisurely walks. Feel free to bring along dog toys and let your pooch explore the open fields and beach—just keep in mind that there are several amenities not available, such as a fully fenced area or separation for big and small dogs. The park has garnered a solid 4.2-star rating from users, with praise for its community atmosphere and training-friendly environment. Locals affectionately refer to it as "Dog Island," noting its suitability for teaching dogs to swim, though it can become busy during the summer months.

AKA known as Dog island to us locals. I find the people in this area really understanding when you're training. Wonderful place to teach your dog to swim. Side note: if your dog is reactive to loud noises the train does come through this area.

Fenced in area was small. There are area on the map where dogs can be off lease outside of the fenced in area but we didn’t get there. Paved paths dogs need to be leashed. Was a nice area designated for dogs to swim. That was a nice area.
