About Riverbend, Calgary

Established in the early 1980s, Riverbend takes its name from its location on a bend in the Bow River. The community is known for its three distinct landscapes — floodplain, escarpment, and upland plain — which create a variety of views and streetscapes. Many homes are just a short walk or bike ride from the river pathways and Carburn Park, one of Calgary’s largest inner-city natural parks.

Riverbend has grown into a family-oriented neighbourhood with an active community association, local schools, sports fields, and playgrounds, along with convenient access to nearby shopping areas and employment centres in SE Calgary.

Riverbend Location & Boundaries

Riverbend is located in Calgary’s southeast quadrant and is generally bounded by:

• Glenmore Trail to the north
• Deerfoot Trail to the west
• 24 Street SE and industrial lands to the east
• Bow River and surrounding green space to the south and southwest

This location gives residents quick driving access to Deerfoot Trail, Glenmore Trail, Barlow Trail, and other major routes, making commuting to downtown, Quarry Park, Foothills Industrial, and other employment hubs straightforward.

Parks, Pathways & Carburn Park

• Two large ponds popular for paddling and fishing
