Offered in: EnglishA day trip from Calgary to witness a landscape where dinosaurs walked the earth and southern Alberta was a subtropical paradise of towering redwoods and giant ferns. Today, fertile plains suddenly drop away into a world of multi-hued canyons and wind-sculpted hoodoos. Spanning east from Drumheller to the Saskatchewan border and south to the United States, this region is known as the Canadian Badlands. It is home to the largest deposits of dinosaur bones in the world. Blend your love for history and art in one stop! Visit the historical village of East Coulee.

Open the door and see up to six people. With a capacity of six people, Drumheller’s Little Church puts a new spin on the old nursery rhyme. But while it’s a small church, it has loads of charm and a big appeal. The church also has a rich story. It was built in 1958 by a local contractor in cooperation with the ministerial association. It is a bit whimsical, but it is, first and foremost, a place of worship and meditation. After it was vandalized in 2014, inmates at the Drumheller Institution rebuilt the church and returned it to its former glory.
Duration: 30 minutes
3
Horsethief Canyon

Wayne
Along a six-kilometer stretch from Rosedale to Wayne in Drumheller, you will find 11 one-lane metal bridges. These bridges are recognized in the Guinness Book of World Records as the most bridges within the shortest distance. The bridges span the winding Rosebud River and the now-defunct railway tracks that were once used to transport coal through local mining communities.

Horseshoe Canyon
Walking through the Horseshoe Canyon is like exploring a different world. Without exaggeration, this is a very unique experience that you're unlikely to find anywhere else. The landscape around this area is mostly flat, but then the earth abruptly opens up at the Horseshoe Canyon, and Alberta's prairies reveal one of its greatest secrets. Even without venturing into the canyon, the south rim of the Horseshoe Canyon offers stunning views of the rugged badlands, and it's worth a visit when touring the area around Drumheller.
