What an amazing place to visit! And we only saw bit and pieces of it. Every thing, other than food, in the park is included in your admission. We rode the steam engine around the park numerous times. Took the sternwheel paddlewheeler out onto the reserviour. We had a 3 year old and a infant with us so were somewhat limited in what we could do. The Midway was a big hit - ferris wheel, carousel, tilt&whirl, all were loved by our group. The Bakery was so so yummy - cinnamon buns were actually nothing special, but the butter tarts and the cheese buns were so good. Food at the Midway, the ice cream and the candy store was quite reasonably priced. We visited the Park and the zoo on this trip and I would go back to Heritage Park in a heartbeat. We didn't even get to check out any of the historical homes or the rance, but I'm sure we'll be back.

The Gasoline Alley automobile museum is full of fascinating old cars, most fully restored, and automobile devices like old fuel pumps. The old trains were the best, and we went through the luxury cars once used by the super-rich. All the historical sites were well staffed and has projects going, including woodworking and blacksmith production. The old hospital had a person with a good medical background, so we could have a meaningful discussion of the different instruments displayed, one complete set to remove tonsils and a very different looking set to remove an appendix. The old steam train goes around the park, now powered by diesel instead of coal but still fun. We made a day of it, spending about six hours. We were going to eat at one of the restaurants, but instead we pigged out at the ice cream shop and bakery.

This was an excellent choice for a day in Calgary. We got the mid week 15% discounts and it wasn’t too busy at all. Despite Covid the place was well set up for distancing and sanitizing of hands, masks were optional by now (end of July 2020)
The steam train, paddle wheeler, wagon rides and midway were included in the admission price, and the layout was very pleasing. Plenty of tree cover if needed, it was a hot day so that was appreciated.
Food was ok, we would have loved more gluten free options but the GF chocolate brownie everyone sold was very good!
The best part was how knowledgeable the staff in the houses/buildings were, very impressive level of dedication and information, overall a lovely day. Travelled as a group of 3 adults.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Heritage Park. We were especially impressed with the staff and interpreters who provided a great historical perspective from earlier days. We also thought it was a fantastic value at just under $30. We would definitely go back again on that return trip to Calgary.

The bathrooms were still closed due to COVID.? There was also a no drinking/eating policy on the on the bus either. We were travelling with two children and two seniors with some issues which made the trip a bit more difficult. I myself who am on Chemo would not have gone if I had known this. The guide on the bus was average. Positive things were being assisted on and off bus and frequent and beautiful stops.

I enjoyed Heritage Park to a point. It is a beautiful park with lovely scenery and the people working there were all friendly and helpful. The problem is that so many of the areas claim to be wheelchair accessible and that is simply not true. The roads are gravel which is difficult for a wheelchair and the sidewalks are vintage boardwalks requiring steps to get off and on. The park would need a lot of alterations in order to become accessible and they should at the very least, stop claiming to be wheelchair accessible. The admission was much too expensive for the many limitations that I encountered.

This is easily one of the best historical villages I have ever visited! The attention to detail in town reconstruction, and replica buildings such as Nelly McClung's House really enhanced the experience. There were many areas to visit in the town, encompassing different time periods, such as a ranch, a town centre, and a prospecting area, and each area had extremely welcoming staff to greet you and explain the historical significance of the area you were in. This village is great for adults who enjoy history, and kids will also enjoy their time spent here, with carriage rides, a steam locomotive, a paddleboat, and a midway devoted to carnival rides. This is a great experience for any history lovers visiting Calgary.

Heritage Park has something for everyone. From my youngest son to my teenagers everyone enjoys themselves. The price for admission is fair and includes many perks. It's best to get an annual pass because if you live near by you will want to visit more than once. Its magical at the holidays but truly amazing all year round. And be sure to stop in at the bakery!

It’s an amazing place to visit in Calgary and spend time with family and children. Great opportunity to learn about Canadian pioneer life before Candian Pacific Railway started. The gasoline car gallery was very attractive. Always check out the activities by scanning the QR code right before entering the gravel road. Keep water and snacks handy.

Took my granddaughter when it was 32 out and it was just way too hot. Not much shade when walking around and no shade while waiting for the boat. Not totally user friendly for seeing all the exhibits or even browsing some stores. Overall was OK value for the price.

Thank you for responses, it answers some the questions. The group of 40 includes from kids to seniors in their late 70s so not wanting to walk much and wanting to be able to sit down as a group.
Also are their shelters if it rains?
are there areas for a group of 40 to be together

Yes there is a bus that will take you from entrance to the middle of the village so you dont have to walk there although its not that big a bus some may have to wait untill it returns.A group can go in the Wainwright hotel bar to sit & have a snack.Check with Heritage park to see what they recommend for large groups.They put up tents for seniors day at the park so maybe they can do the same for you
can groups of 40 people go there together?

It’s a big enough place that 40 people could look around - it’s on two levels. Probably best to contact them directly and ask. It’s a great place and I’m sure you will really enjoy it. Good luck. 👍🏻
