Killarney Lake Park - trail update - March 2, 2022
Multi-Use Trails | Cross Country Ski Trails
As part of the Killarney Lake Park Management Plan and the Odell Park Management Plan the city will engage a consultant to complete a Signage and Wayfinding Strategy in order to enhance user experience in the parks. In addition, the city has begun the process of developing a new Recreation & Parks Master Plan in 2021.
The continued expansion of non-motorized multi-use trails is a priority, as identified in the Municipal Plan. In future years, the current network of trails will be expanded with the development of on-road connections as described in the Trails/Bikeways Master Plan.
Multi-Use Trails
More than 115 km of non-motorized multi-use trails accessible to pedestrians, non-emission mobility assisted devices (i.e., motorized wheelchairs), and cyclists. During the Winter paved sections are plowed, while trails in Odell and Killarney Lake Parks are groomed for cross-country skiers, snowshoers and walkers.

Trailside Adult Fitness Equipment
The City has installed and continues to maintain adult fitness equipment at two sites along our trail system. They are on our Crosstown Trail, near the intersection of Beaverbrook Drive and University Avenue and along the Northside Trail in Henry Park. This equipment is very versatile and can be used by adults with a wide variety of fitness levels.
Cross Country Ski Trails
The groomed and tracked trails of Killarney Lake Park and Odell Park are a wonderful way to explore the depths of the forested landscapes of two very extraordinary city parks. Every effort is made to have these trails groomed and tracked for skiing as soon as possible after a snowfall. When time permits, additional trails are groomed for walking. It's important to remember that during the winter season trails may not be maintained on a regular basis.
Remember to use with caution, and at your own risk. Be safe and have fun!
