Panorama Hills

Panorama Hills, Calgary's most populated community with approximately 26,000 residents, represents master-planned suburban development at exceptional scale, developed by Genstar in the mid-1990s on the grounds of a former rock quarry whose stones were used in Calgary's historic city hall. The community's defining characteristic is its remarkable natural landscape featuring undulating terrain full of valleys, ponds, trickling streams, and arching hills that provide memorable views of the Rocky Mountains to the west and prairie grasslands to the north. A cairn commemorating Methodist missionary Reverend George McDougall preserves historical significance within the contemporary suburban fabric. Strategically positioned in Calgary's northwest, the community is bordered by Stoney Trail to the north, Country Hills Boulevard to the south, and Beddington Trail to the west, creating quick access to surrounding areas and downtown core. The Country Hills Golf Course encircles the community's western perimeter, making golf a signature recreational feature integrated directly into neighborhood design. Panorama Hills provides access to four elementary and middle schools, establishing comprehensive educational infrastructure supporting its family-friendly demographic profile. The Panorama Hills Community Centre serves as the recreational hub with a refurbished two-level facility featuring kitchen, fireplace, and outdoor patio overlooking a two-and-a-half-acre private park exclusively for Residents Association members. This 6-acre private park features water spray park, tennis courts, cascading waterfall, multi-use sport court, basketball courts, children's playground, picnic areas, volleyball courts, and sandbox—creating resort-style recreational amenity exceptional among Calgary suburban communities.
