Proudly connecting you to your river valley

We are a not-for-profit made up of the six shareholder municipalities that border the North Saskatchewan River in the Edmonton Metropolitan region.

Our goal is to connect one continuous trail system from Devon to Fort Saskatchewan, approximately 100 km. We're about 70% complete.

We respectfully acknowledge that we are located within Treaty 6 territory, and Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4. We acknowledge this land as the traditional home for many Indigenous Peoples including the Cree, Blackfoot, Métis, Nakota Sioux, Dene, Saulteaux, Anishinaabe, Inuit and many others whose histories, languages, and cultures continue to influence our vibrant community.

Trek The Trails

We’ve created a series of Trail Trek How-to blogs for the Edmonton-region river valley that teach you how to get out on the trails. We have a mix of short and long routes for both beginners or those seeking more of a challenge. All are designed to help you easily explore different sections of the river valley!

OUR STORY

Over 20 years ago a group of volunteers came together with a shared vision - and a shared love for the river valley. That vision grew into a plan of action to transform the river valley into a world-class, integrated, cross-municipality park and trail system. This history set into motion the RVA's work today in helping municipalities fund the design and construction of projects that connect people to this natural wonder.
