Renting in Walden, Calgary
Walden is a newer community in Calgary's deep south, built around preserved wetlands and a pathway network that gives it more green space than most communities of its age. Housing is recent and varied — apartments, townhouses and detached homes — and the retail at Shawnessy and along Macleod Trail covers day-to-day shopping a short drive away.
- Wetlands and pathway network
- Newer housing throughout
- Shawnessy shopping nearby
- Macleod Trail and Stoney Trail access
- Close to Fish Creek Provincial Park
- Getting around
- Bus routes connect to the south CTrain stations at Shawnessy and Somerset-Bridlewood for downtown service. Macleod Trail and Stoney Trail serve vehicle traffic.
- Walkability
- Suburban, with shopping concentrated at Shawnessy and along Macleod Trail; the wetland pathways make local walking a genuine feature.
