The Green Room

Join us this month for an unforgettable outdoor event. We’re hitting the river again, and this time, we’re starting on foot.

 through Edmonton’s River Valley. Led by Métis geologist Keith Diakiw, this 1.5-hour walk blends stories, ceremony, and wild history from the land we call home.

 chill cruise through the heart of the city, under nine bridges, with river guides sharing cool facts and fun vibes the whole way.

This event is only available to those over 16 and under 35 years of age.

 Our meeting location and parking for all guests is at Dawson Park (10298 89 St NW, Edmonton, AB T5Z 0E7).

Level of Difficulty: Fairly easy, with minor elevation gain. Most trails are paved and suitable for a relaxed-paced walk.

This activity may present challenges for individuals with mobility concerns.

While the skilled river guide navigates the raft, passenger participation and paddling power is crucial, requiring some paddling.

For your convenience, there are various public washroom facilities along the journey:

You’ll find the first public washroom at the meeting points where you board the shuttle.

During the midpoint stop in the float, washrooms are also available nearby.

As you wrap up your adventure, back where you parked, public washrooms will still be accessible.

It’s summer in Edmonton, and anything can happen! Please dress for the weather and bring warm or cool clothes, a hat, sunscreen and plenty of water.

TheGreenRoom will provide snacks and food for the duration of the trip. 

RiverWatch provides all other safety equipment, such as first aid kits, PFDs and rain jackets.

Meet up at the parking lot of Dawson Park
