Refinery Park off Ogden road and the 50th overpass in the SE

70comments

Update 4/7/2008: this lot is under heavy re-construction by O'Connor associates and the City of Calgary at this moment, I believe the park is closed to the public. Easy access from Deerfoot and Glenmore trail. Next to the Roadking Truck Stop. Lots of places to go and be left alone.

The guide

Where exactly

From Glenmore SE: Drive North on Ogden Road through the community of Ogden. Go past the Baseball Diamonds on the left. Go under the CN Train Bridge. Just after that there is a road to the left, which takes you into the park area. From Deerfoot: Take the Peigan Trail turn off. It turns into Barlow Trail SE. Turn off west or left on 50th Ave. Follow the 50th overpass around. Turn left onto Ogden Road. Then on the first dirt road turn right before the CN train bridge to drive into the park. Cross street: Ogden Road and 50th Ave. Not far from the CN train overpass.

Cruisiest spot: Parking areas, picnic table areas, pathways, etc.

When to go

Anytime. Lots of cool places to wander. Lots of pathways. Tables to use. Several parking areas. Park is not used very often by people. Many wooded secret areas to do what ever you want. I have never seen the police go there. The odd person walks their dogs there.

Etiquette

Same as with other Parking Lots / Park areas.

Safety

Garbage - This has to be one of my pet peeves. It's now wonder that the park workers get so pissed off with the amount of garbage they have to pick up. All it takes is an extra Kleenex to pick up after ourselves when we're done having fun. The amount of garbabe we leave in the "playground" directly relates to the attention we get from "those who must be obeyed". Take the time to clean up after yourself please!!! Personally, I stuff a baggie into my pocket and pack out my own garbage. None. I have never seen cops in this area. Other guys I spoke to there said the same thing. Very Quite secluded spots.
