Prince's Island Park is a recreational park located north of downtown Calgary on an island in the Bow River.
The park is named after Peter Anthony Prince, the founder of Eau Claire Lumber Mill. It was established in 1947 by the Prince family. The park covers 20 hectares and features several pedestrian bridges that connect directly to downtown Calgary. In addition to green spaces and parkland, it offers benches and views of the Calgary skyline. Canada geese and mallards have made the park their home.

The park right on the Bow River is beautifully landscaped and well visited. Through the park you come to Peace Bright.
