Parks & Natural Wonders

Established as sanctuaries for wildlife, Alberta’s five national parks contain thousands of square kilometers of unspoiled wilderness. Home to countless species of plant and animal life, the beauty of diverse terrains beckon outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers from around the world. >>>

Alberta’s 69 provincial parks and hundreds of recreational areas showcase the diversity of our geography—boreal forests, mountains, foothills, grasslands, lakelands and badlands. There's even a provincial park in the middle of a major urban centre. In 2007, we celebrate our 75th anniversary of the establishment of our provincial parks. >>>

Alberta's municipal parks are each city's pride and joy. Here in Alberta North, you'll find a wide variety of green spaces for hiking, biking or just relaxing in nature. >>>

If you're looking to find the place where nature meets excitement, look no further. All you need is a sense of adventure, an appreciation for natural beauty and the willingness to create memories that will last a lifetime. >>>
