Science for the MIND, stories from the HEART, and history of the LAND. Talking Rock Tours is a national award winning, one-of-a-kind, geo-experience company that is 100% Indigenous-owned and operated. Depending on the season, they conduct small group walking/hiking/snowshoe discovery tours that explore some of the natural wonders of Alberta through an Indigenous cultural lens. Participants will learn about the natural and cultural history of the various regions of Alberta, as well as experience Indigenous ceremony, storytelling, and teachings for creating long-lasting memories. In the Spirit of Reconciliation, you will gain a deeper appreciation for the land, Indigenous cultures, and pre-1867 Canadian history. Every rock and stone have stories to tell, so rediscover Alberta today with the following discovery tours: Edmonton Oil & Gas CEM, Edmonton River Valley, Elk Island National Park, and Whitecourt. There are also multi-day Badlands and Nordegg offerings as "Guide for Hire."
