Alberta Regionale Übersicht

Let Alberta’s spectacular natural setting inspire your adventurous spirit. The beauty and variety of this vast province lends itself to exploration with a wide variety of exciting and relaxing activities, both outdoors and in. Many discover the Rocky Mountain region through sightseeing, hiking, biking, golf and horseback riding in summer, or skiing and snowmobiling in winter. Thinking about a road trip? You’ll find a rental car, motorhome/caravan or bus tours to be convenient, appealing options. You’ll also discover many chances to be pampered with top quality cuisine and spa getaways en-route. Many visitors combine their Alberta vacation with a visit to our neighbour to the west, the province of British Columbia.

Calgary and Edmonton each offer unique urban attractions and festivals, but many visitors are also drawn to the "big sky" and big hospitality of the western culture that thrives in the picturesque heartland of Central Alberta or 'Cowboy Country' in southern Alberta. The province’s Badlands region surprises and fascinates with spectacular rock formations, stark desert-like landscape and active dinosaur digs. If it’s untamed wilderness you’re after, Eastern Alberta and the Peace River Valley region in Northern Alberta offer exciting experiences for sportsmen and nature lovers.
