The park protects the watershed of Dog Rump Creek which empties into Big Lake and the Sturgeon/North Saskatchewan water shed. ‘Classrooms in the Forest’ signs provide background and historical notes along the trails in the park.

Heritage Grove is one of a number of urban parks in Spruce Grove ranging from the ubiquitous storm water run off lakes through to the multi-acre Heritage Grove. Some of the parks are connected while other require travel along streets to move from one to another. In total, the city claims 40KM of all-weather trails (asphalt and gravel) in its parks system. Nevertheless, for a Low Beginner destination, a family outing or taking Fido for a walk; Heritage Grove is an excellent destination.

Area Details

• Name/Owner: Heritage Grove Park / City of Spruce Grove
• Is it Worth It and Why Go Here?: x/5:Snowshoeing in the park could be done before the efficient maintenance crews remove it from the asphalt trails. There are gravel trails as well which are more amenable. Consider wearing micro cleats for traction on both trail surfaces.
• Playgrounds and information signs make this both a fun an education destination for kids.
• Wayne Gretzky Units: 28 KM
• Trail Classification: [From Google Sheet].

• The Drive Out: Drive west on Highway 16 or 16A which are both efficient industrial routes, not much to see here. Heritage Gove is extensive so park in one of the many commercial areas and access the trail system.
• The Other Shoe: Easy Fat biking along the numerous trails and lots of walking. Low Beginner snowshoeing with no significant safety considerations.
