Enjoy a historic walk along the cobblestone streets of the vibrant Stephen Avenue Walk. If you love the liveliness of the city as well as the friendly faces you often see within a town setting, a stroll down Stephen Avenue Walk is something you’ll take pleasure in. Along this active strip you’ll find unique boutiques and shops, as well as vendors which carry distinctive jewellery and diverse cultural items. The Stephen Avenue Walk contains an important piece of Calgary’s history as well. Huddled below the city sky rises are buildings which are 100 years old or more including the Old City Hall, the Hudson’s Bay Company and the old Bank of Montreal building. On a hot sunny day indulge in a drink on one of many outdoor patios which are fantastic for watching street performers and people going by. You could see between 5,000 and 10,000 people walk through per hour during the busiest times of the day! The walkway is only open to pedestrians during the day but not to worry, there are plenty of pubs and restaurants open for your evening entertainment!
