Railtown Park

Highlight • Trail

Railtown Park is a beautiful little park hidden between condos and shopping centres. Its multi-use trail is great to stroll down any time of day. Follow the trail down to Constable Ezio Faraone Park, which boasts incredible views of river valley. Midway you can hop on the High Level Bridge streetcar and head south of the river.

John Walter Museum

Highlight • Historical Site

From the City of Edmonton website:
"The John Walter Museum is located right in the heart of Edmonton’s river valley in Kinsmen Park. As an accredited museum, the site interprets the life of John Walter and the Strathcona community of Walterdale from 1870-1942."

The bridge is roofed to protect from the elements. You walk at a level lower than the High Level (road & rail) Bridge, so your views of the river from either side are unobstructed.

Bike rental shop / cafe where you can get water, snacks, coffee, beer, etc... Can't comment on the bike rental shop, but the cafe is overpriced. A hot chocolate and a bottle of water were $7.88. But, if you need a break, it's there...

Constable Ezio Faraone Park

Highlight • Monument

This park overlooks the LRT and Highlevel bridges. Just across 109 street from the legislature and right near downtown. Constable Ezio Joseph Faraone (1957-1990) was a dedicated city police officer who was killed in the line of duty. A ten-year veteran of the force, Faraone was the third Edmonton police officer since 1918 to be killed while on duty.
The 33-year-old officer, a member of the elite task force unit, was gunned down on June 25, 1990, as he approached a car believed to have been used in a bank robbery. Two men were later convicted of his murder. In the wake of Faraone’s killing, new police policy was adopted requiring all task force members to wear bullet-proof vests.
The Ezio Faraone Park includes a larger-than-life bronze sculpture of the late police officer by Edmonton artist Danek Mozdzenski. The sculpture depicts a uniformed Faraone kneeling beside a young boy. The park commemorates not only Faraone but also Edmonton’s two other slain officers, Const. Frank Beevers (d. 1918) and Const. William Leslie Nixon (d. 1919); both men were shot by assailants. The 4.25-ha. park, at the north end of the High Level Bridge, was officially
opened on 21 June 1992.
