Rotary/Mattamy Greenway

In 2009, the Rotary/Mattamy Greenway was a dream. The idea was to build a pathway that encircled the city of Calgary, the only one of its kind anywhere. Along the way, there would be over a dozen parks and amenities to visit and enjoy. The $50M project was massive and unprecedented in scale, both for Calgary and for the Parks Foundation. Imagine a wheel – the Rotary/Mattamy Greenway, connecting to spokes – Calgary’s many existing pathways. Together, they form one of the largest pathway networks in the world with over 1000kms of trails. Starting with pathway construction in Calgary’s northeast in early 2010, the Rotary/Mattamy Greenway progressed with support from key partners, including all levels of government, real estate developers, energy companies and individual Calgarians.
