Griffith Woods Park, Natural environment park in southwest Calgary, Canada.
The park extends over 93 hectares along the Elbow River, offering a network of paved walkways and forested dirt trails through wetlands and ponds.
Established in 2000 after Wilbur Griffith and his wife Betty donated a portion of their estate to the City of Calgary for nature preservation.
The park borders Tsuut'ina Nation territory, requiring visitors to respect boundary lines and remain within designated Calgary park areas.
Facilities include soccer fields, basketball courts, playgrounds, and multiple picnic areas accessible from Discovery Ridge Boulevard Southwest.
The protected area contains one of only two remaining large white spruce groves in Calgary, sheltered by valley walls from drying winds.
