Alberta’s great outdoors

Nature Festivals Outdoor Activities History

Located in western Alberta, the city of Grande Prairie lies along the Bear River near the British Columbia border. Its name comes from 19th-century fur traders who described the wide-open land surrounding the original settlement. Today, Grande Prairie’s economy is driven by agriculture, forest products, and oil and natural gas. Outdoor enthusiasts enjoy hiking, birdwatching, fly fishing, canoeing, kayaking, boating, water skiing, horseback riding, hunting, mountain biking, and snowmobiling. Erosion at Kleskun Hill has revealed dinosaur tracks and aquatic fossils from a prehistoric river delta formed more than 70 million years ago.
