Edmonton

Edmonton is Canada’s northernmost metropolis in the prairie heartland of Alberta, where bison roam in Elk Island National Park and a swath of parkland unfurls from the winding North Saskatchewan River. Bike, hike, skate or Segway around this urban playground and take in the lively downtown ICE District. Enjoy the groundbreaking culinary scene and local brews on tap while waiting for the puck to drop as world-renowned hockey teams face off. Be sure to explore local shops and stop by West Edmonton Mall. Edmonton whets any appetite, from award-winning patisseries and inventive Métis fare, to exhilarating adventure in the river valley trails.
