Parks & Sportsfields is a section within the Core Services Department that also includes Engineering, Planning & Development, Public Works, and Utilities.
In its early days, Olds was known locally as "Hay City" due to the abundant hay crops harvested annually. We have paid tribute to our early heritage by naming our trail system the "Hay City Trails". The trail system consists of both paved and unpaved trails, and trail routes incorporated in our town streets.
![]() We love our Parks! Olds features over 100 acres of parks, playgrounds and green spaces. Make sure your children play safely.

The disc golf course was built for the 1999 Alberta Seniors Games on the site of an old par 3 golf course. It is a manicured site with open fairways and well protected targets. The location is at Hartman Green, by the elementary school at 53rd Avenue and 53rd Street.
Olds Skatepark The Olds Skateboard Park is located behind the Olds Sportsplex, just east of the Cow Palace at 5133 - 52 Ave. It is integrated into the existing pathway system in Centennial Park, incorporating rails, gaps, hips, ledges, stairs, banks, a ride-through min-ramp section, coloured handrails, and 'pump bumps' to keep it fast.

The Olds Splash Park is also integrated into the existing pathway system in Centennial Park. The Olds Splash Park cement pad is a recreational wheel-free zone. (examples: skate boards, bikes, heelies, wagons, strollers). Persons with mobility issues who require wheelchairs, walkers or scooters are exempt from the wheel-free rules and encouraged to use the facility. (Entrance pictured below). The Olds Splash Park is an inclusive play area and everyone is welcome to enjoy the facility.
