Lions Park Station is a Calgary C-Train light rail station in Hounsfield Heights-Briar Hill, Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Opened on September 7, 1987 as part of the original Northwest Line (Route 201). It is located on the exclusive LRT right of way on the south side of 14 Avenue NW, just east of 19 Street NW. Two side-loading platforms with ramp access from grade level as well as pedestrian crossings are located at both ends of the station. The station is located adjacent to the Mall Entrance 5 of the North Hill Centre shopping mall, and is less than 1 kilometre (0.62 miles) away from the campus of SAIT.

The station is located on the Northwest leg of the Red Line, sitting between SAIT/AUArts/Jubilee Station southbound, and Banff Trail Station northbound. The station acts as a transfer point of the MAX Orange BRT bus line, connecting with the North Hill stop.[1]

In 2008, the station registered an average of 5,800 weekday boardings.[2]
