Harvie Passage
Stop at Harvie Passage to watch the Bow River run through engineered channels and rapids from the shore, focusing on the water’s movement.
Why go
Choose this as a brief, deliberate river stop rather than a conventional park visit. The engineered channels make the river’s force visible, and watching from land lets you see how the flow changes across the passage. Keep to safe viewing areas and check current conditions; water levels can alter the scene considerably.

Engineered river channels.
Riverside viewing of the Bow River rapids.
