Prince's Island Park

This Bow River island offers paths, gardens and wetland habitat just north of downtown. Bridges from Eau Claire make it an easy shift from city streets to riverside green space.

Prince's Island Park

Why go

Follow the island paths for Bow River views and the Chevron Learning Pathway's constructed wetland, then cross back toward Eau Claire or the north bank. The park carries the name of Peter Anthony Prince, associated with the Eau Claire Lumber Mill, tying a calm present-day walk to the river's industrial history.

What to look for

  • The Chevron Learning Pathway passes a constructed wetland.
  • Bridges frame views along both arms of the Bow River.
  • Gardens and picnic spaces spread across the island.

Useful to know

  • Enter from Eau Claire for a natural continuation of a downtown walk.
  • Keep to paths around the wetland and allow extra time if you plan to cross to the north bank.
