About This Tour

A private tour into the Alberta Badlands, home to dramatic landscapes including Horsethief Canyon, the Hoodoos, and Horseshoe Canyon, stretching across more than 35,000 square miles of Southern Alberta. A private tour of the Canadian Badlands, home to dramatic landscapes, gorgeous hikes, and incredible prehistoric history. Real stops include Horsethief Canyon, the Hoodoos, and Horseshoe Canyon, with the towns of Drumheller and Dinosaur Provincial Park among the region's most famous sites.

Horseshoe Canyon is a short drive from Highway 9, with viewpoints and a roughly 5 km circular walk showing layers of sedimentary rock. Farther east, Dinosaur Provincial Park along the Red Deer River was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979 and has produced fossils of more than 44 dinosaur species from 75 to 77 million years ago.

Alberta fossil law is strict: collecting normally requires written provincial permission, so look and photograph, but leave the bones where they lie.
