The Royal Glenora Stairs are a staple in Edmonton's river valley and some of the most trafficked stairs in Edmonton. They're a popular with runners for their steep grade and beautiful views of the North Saskatchewan River. There are lots of other paths to explore along the valley and across the river.

This is a great walking, running, and cycling trail during the summer and makes a fantastic snowshoe or cross-country ski loop. There are plenty of great views and nature experiences for how close to the city you are. Most of the trail is well-maintained, but the route can be quite busy, so folks are reminded to cycle slowly, walk on the right side of the trail, and to enjoy the viewpoints.

This loop trail is easy to follow and mostly flat with one or two small hills. There is parking available at several lots nearby if this one is full. There are lots of little side trails to explore in the trees along the way! There are washrooms at Emily Murphy Park which are open throughout the day.
