Located in the heart of the City of Calgary, the forests and meadows of Fish Creek Park harbour an incredible variety of plants and wildlife which are described in the first half of the book together with easy-to-understand information on how the valley was formed and what evidence has been left behind by the first visitors 8,000 years ago. The author has also delved into the recent human history of the valley before it became a park in 1972.

The second half of the book is a journey through the different areas with suggestions of fun things to do all through the seasons.
