Welcome to Bowness
Explore this beautiful Calgary community
Nestled within Calgary's landscape, Bowness stands as a testament to its rich history and vibrant community spirit. At the heart of this neighborhood lies the iconic Bowness Park, a beloved destination offering year-round attractions such as paddle boating, ice skating, and scenic picnics by the Bow River. Formerly a separate town until 1964, Bowness retains its small-town charm amidst Calgary's urban sprawl, hosting a myriad of community events including the Tour de Bowness bike race, Bowness Stampede Parade, and more.
With natural barriers defining its borders and a welcoming atmosphere, Bowness invites all to explore its quaint streets, bustling Farmer's Market, and local landmarks like the historic Bowness sign. As the neighborhood undergoes a transformative shift, with older homes giving way to new developments, opportunities for investment abound, promising a bright future for residents and visitors alike. As a proud Bownesian for over 15 years, I can attest to the enduring allure of our corner of Calgary, where heritage meets modernity, and community bonds thrive.
