Overview
Take a trip to Alberta on your Canada vacation.
Adventure awaits in Alberta, the Western Canadian province renowned for its natural beauty and dramatic contrasts between wide-open prairies, cosmopolitan urban centres, and jagged mountain peaks. Whether you seek peace and tranquillity in alpine forests or the adrenaline rush of shredding down powdered slopes, Alberta is a paradise for nature lovers who want to breathe in fresh air and experience Canada’s Western heritage.
Roar down the Icefields Parkway, taking in views of the Rocky Mountains on your way to the resort towns of Jasper and Banff, considered one of Canada’s most scenic drives. Glacial waters sparkle for you at Lakes Louise, Moraine, and Minnewanka, where you can paddle out into the blue or hike to new heights. Don’t miss out on a chance to step foot on the ancient ice of the Athabasca Glacier or marvel at the depths of Maligne Canyon.
Pack your cowboy boots if you visit in summer as the iconic Calgary Stampede takes over Alberta’s largest city with an exciting display of concerts, shows, food, and more all celebrating Western traditions. More culture can be found in Edmonton, Alberta’s capital, home to some of Canada’s most important museums and North America’s largest mall, featuring its own indoor waterpark and rollercoaster.
