Crowfoot station is a CTrain light rail station in Calgary, Alberta, Canada adjacent to Scenic Acres and Arbour Lake. It opened on June 15, 2009 as part of a 4 km extension, of Route 201 and was the line's northern terminus until August 23, 2014.

The station is located in the median of Crowchild Trail, 13km (08miles) Northwest of the 7 Avenue & 9 Street SW interlocking, to the west of Nose Hill Drive. Designed with a 1345 stall Park and Ride lot and pedestrian overpasses that connect the station directly to both the Scenic Acres community, as well as provide a link to Crowfoot Centre. Inside the station building, two escalators, a set of stairs, and an elevator provide access to the platform. The Crowfoot Station is unique in that the Western end of the platform wraps around the station building.[1]
