Millennium Park

Highlight • Rest Area

Millennium Park is a relatively small riverside green space in downtown St. Albert, set along the Sturgeon River and connected to the city’s extensive trail network. There are open lawns with benches and picnic tables nestled under mature trees, river views, easy access to nearby shops and restaurants, and a hub for community events and seasonal gatherings. It's an ideal spot for a waterfront picnic and a great place to relax under the trees.

Sturgeon River Trail: St. Albert

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

The Sturgeon River Trail follows the banks of the Sturgeon River through St. Albert. This section is part of the city’s extensive Red Willow Trail System, which spans nearly 100 kilometres of interconnected pathways linking neighbourhoods, parks, and river valley green spaces.

The mostly paved multi-use trail winds through the wooded river valley with frequent views of the water and surrounding parkland. Popular with walkers, runners, and cyclists, it’s one of the best ways to explore the natural corridor that runs through the heart of St. Albert while staying close to the city.

Sturgeon River

Highlight • River

The Sturgeon River winds through the heart of St. Albert as it flows east toward the North Saskatchewan River. Its tree-lined banks provide habitat for birds and other wildlife, with paved trails and viewpoints making the river one of the city’s main natural features. Its calm stretches of water and pedestrian bridges give the river corridor a surprisingly peaceful feel within the city.
