Description
These facilities are used both by high-performance winter athletes, by ordinary, adventurous Calgarians, and by lots of visitors. The bobsled track immortalized by four crazed Jamaican sledders continues to be used for World Cup events. The downhill ski slope is a popular entry-level spot for skiers, while the half-pipe area crawls with local snowboarders. The park also offers chairlift rides, ski jump towers, bobsled rides, luge rides, a mountain teahouse, and guided tours and much more. Come summer and the park is full of cross-country and downhill mountain bike racers. Inside the main COP building there is a restaurant/bar and the Olympic Hall of Fame and Museum.
