Drumheller at a Glance
Located 130 km (81 mi) northeast of Calgary
in Alberta's Badlands, the Drumheller Valley is best known for its diverse and
unique topography. Made up of mostly barren terrain that includes grasslands,
hoodoos, canyons and coulees, the area provides a vast landscape that is worthy
of discovery, perhaps from the gaping jaw of the world's
largest dinosaur statue in downtown Drumheller, which visitors are encouraged
to climb into. Drumheller is best known as the home of the Royal
Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology, a world-class facility dedicated to the study
of Drumheller's early residents, the dinosaurs. Visitors to the museum can explore
hundreds of preserved fossils and take part in interactive displays and exhibits.
Golfers can enjoy a challenging day on the links with the rugged terrain and wind
conditions acting as natural hazards. Other outdoor activities include hiking,
skiing and taking a ride on the historic Bleriot
Ferry, which crosses the powerful Red Deer River.
