What makes Drumheller (Dinosaur Valley) & Horseshoe Canyon 1-Day Tour a unique experience ?
A glacier-carved “U” surrounded by golden prairie, the aptly named Horseshoe Canyon is a dramatic introduction to the badlands.
Features ten signature galleries devoted to paleontology, with 40 dinosaur skeletons with more than 110000 fossil specimens. (Optional)
This church was first erected by local contractor Trygve Seland, in cooperation with the ministerial Association in 1968 and was reconstructed by inmates of the Drumheller Institution in 1991. It was designed as a place of worship and mediation and not just a tourist attraction.
The Drumheller hoodoos are internationally recognized icons of the Alberta badlands. Composed of sand and clay from the Horseshoe Canyon Formation, the solid, strong capstones protect the softer, underlying base creating their unique mushroom-like shape.
Located at the base of the World’s Largest Dinosaur, the Drumheller Visitor Information Centre is open year-round to meet all of your traveling needs.
