Explore Indigenous culture, western
life and Alberta’s ancient past
Southern Alberta boasts some of Canada’s most unique and exciting attractions,
from world-renowned paleontological sites to historical experiences that will
immerse you in the lives of Indigenous peoples and wild west settlers. There are
new sights and activities around every bend of the Cowboy Trail in the province’s
foothills ranching country and the dinosaur-studded Hoodoo Trail in the Alberta
Badlands. A land of park preserves, here you’ll find vast stretches of virgin
prairie, rolling mountains and foothills, sculptural hoodoo hills and cliff walls
featuring haunting, centuries-old pictographs.
