Still with a range of both winter and summer activities, Canada Olympic Park is now operated by Winsport, which owns and operates Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, the Bill Warren Training Centre at the Canmore Nordic Centre in Canmore Alberta, and the Beckie Scott High Performance Training Centre on Haig Glacier Alberta.
At Canada Olympic Park are several webcams, primarily installed for checking out snow conditions in the winter. This webcam, however, spends its time keeping tabs on what is transpiring at the bottom of the park's large Zipline. The Zipline starts at the 90 metre ski jump tower and ends here at the top of the Bungee Tower.
We're not sure how often the webcams here update. It seems to be not often. We doubt that the photo below will be real time. If not, click on the pic to go to the webcam's page.
Essentially all of the original facilities from the '88 Olympics remain, now bolstered by the addition of still more recreational facilities and summer activities, making it a year round facility. Scare yourself witless with a ride down the bobsleigh, piloted by a professional driver, for just $74.99 per person. ZIP down North America’s Fastest Zipline. Take the Leap off the 8 story Free Fall bungee tower. Putt like a Pro on the Mini Golf Course. Ride up the Scenic Chairlift and take in the stunning view of both the city skyline to the east and the Rocky Mountains to the west. Go Mountain Biking on miles of trails. Ride the Skyline Luge, a summertime luge track built for the amateur, even for kids, to sail down the hill. OR, if you just miss winter, go skating at the Markin MacPhail Centre at WinSport. In the winter, ski and snowboard, skate, slide down the hill in the tube park, play hockey or shinny.
