Jasper National Park, with its glaciers and rugged mountain scenery, offers the perfect Canadian Rockies holiday. Explore by boat, bicycle, on horseback or on foot. Hiking the famous century-old Skyline Trail is one way to rediscover the magic.
You can play golf throughout Alberta at more than 280 courses, moving from ghostly hoodoos to mystic rivers to emerald greens, where deer stand stalk straight near the smooth hiss of a well-hit ball. With up to 18 hours of daylight during summer, you can see forever.
Northeast Alberta is blessed with an extensive system of multi-use trails. There’s something here for everyone: hikers, cyclists, off-highway vehicle enthusiasts, horseback riders, snowmobilers, cross country skiers, snowshoers, dog sledders and even wagon trekkers. Stay awhile!
What do movies like Unforgiven, Brokeback Mountain, RV, The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, Superman III and Legends of the Fall have in common? All were shot in Alberta. Come for a visit, get behind the wheel, and put yourself in the scene!
