About The Foundation

We are dedicated to the protection and preservation of lands that possess important heritage and ecological value

The Glenbow Ranch Park Foundation (GRPF) is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the protection and preservation of Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park (GRPP) and other lands that possess important heritage and ecological value. Established in 2007 by the Harvie Family, our Mission is to protect and promote Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park through engagement, education, collaboration and conservation. Our Vision is to make Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park one of the most inspiring, accessible and healthy protected urban parks in North America.

We believe strongly in creating stewardship in all those who visit this beautiful and important Park. Our educational programming brings grassland, pond and archaeological programming to nearly 5,000 area children each year. In partnership with Alberta Parks, we maintain the health of the Park’s fragile ecosystem through a robust and effective Vegetation Management Program. Our volunteers and small staff work tirelessly to protect and promote Glenbow Ranch Provincial Park.

We love Glenbow Ranch. So many different walks and looks different in each season. Plenty or flora and fauna, views and animals to look out for. Regularly see osprey, deer and coyotes. Picnic tables located at different points and a couple of outdoor restrooms. Plenty of walkers and cyclists, but never feels too busy as there is so much space. Volunteer run visitor centre. Also good to watch the trains go by.
