4. Top ten Places To visit In Alberta
Alberta is home to some of Canada's most impressive
scenery, where the prairies meet the mountains and
spectacular snow-capped peaks dominate the skyline.
The awe-inspiring glaciers and turquoise lakes of Banff
and Jasper National Parks draw millions of visitors each
year to this province.
5. Banff National Park
Located 130 kilometers west of Calgary, Banff National Park is the most
visited tourist attraction in the province of Alberta and perhaps the most
impressive national park in Canada. The area encompasses some
spectacular mountain scenery, major ski resorts, beautiful lakes, and the
tourist town of Banff.
6. Lake Louise
Lake Louise, the jewel of Banff National Park, is famous for its
beautiful turquoise colored water that reflects the surrounding
mountains and Victoria Glacier on the far shore. Located just a short
drive north of the town of Banff, the lake is an easy day trip from
Calgary.
7. Ice Fields Parkway
The Ice fields Parkway runs from Lake Louise to Jasper and is one of the
most beautiful drives in Canada. This 230-kilometer stretch of highway
leads past lakes, mountains, glaciers, and waterfalls, with all kinds of
stopping points for visitors to experience the landscape up close.
8. Moraine Lake
Moraine Lake is overshadowed by ten peaks, each more than 3,000 meters
high, containing the Wenkchemna Glacier. There is a great view across the
lake from an overlook reached by hiking up a short path known as
the Rockpile Trail, located near the parking lot.
9. Waterton Lakes National Park
The Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park in the Rocky Mountains
straddles the border between Alberta and the U.S. state of Montana. On the
Canadian side of the border is Waterton Lakes National Park, while on the
American side the park is called Glacier National Park.
10. Jasper National Park
Much like Banff, the name Jasper is associated with both the national park
and the town, which lies at the heart of the park. Jasper is the biggest
national park in Canada, covering an area of 10,878 square kilometers.
11. Calgary Stampede
Calgary is a vibrant modern city which takes particular pride in its
cowboy roots. This becomes most apparent during the city's
biggest event, the annual Calgary Stampede. This is a ten-day event
held in early July, drawing rodeo participants and fans from across
North America.
12. Sunshine Village Ski Resort
Sunshine Village, located just outside the town of Banff, is one of
Alberta's most popular ski resorts, but it is also a beautiful area for
hiking and walking in summer. In winter, the hill, which offers a good
mix of intermediate and advanced runs, attracts skiers from all over the
world.
13. Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology
Located approximately 140 kilometers northeast of Calgary is the small
town of Drumheller, which proudly calls itself the "Town of the
Dinosaurs". Around 75 million years ago, various species of dinosaurs
inhabited this region, and many fossils have been discovered in and
around Drumheller.
14. Kananaskis Country
About 80 km west of Calgary, along the four-lane TransCanada Highway 1,
there is a turn-off south on Highway 40 into some lovely countryside known as
Kananaskis Country. This is a favorite spot for hikers in the summer. Kananaskis
Village has resort facilities and a popular golf course.
