    The Welcome to Drumheller sign is an iconic symbol of the town, greeting visitors as they enter this remarkable region in Alberta, Canada. Located along Highway 9, just as you approach the town, the sign is a striking blend of local history and natural beauty. The centerpiece features a towering dinosaur sculpture, a nod to Drumheller’s title as the “Dinosaur Capital of the World”. The massive creature, often depicted in a dynamic pose, is a reminder of the town’s rich paleontological heritage and its proximity to some of the most important dinosaur fossil sites in the world.

    15 minutes

  • World's Largest Dinosaur

    The World's Largest Dinosaur in Drumheller is an unforgettable roadside attraction and a true testament to the town’s identity as the “Dinosaur Capital of the World.” Standing at a towering 25 meters (82 feet) tall and 46 meters (151 feet) long, this colossal structure is an iconic symbol of Drumheller’s prehistoric past. Built in 2000, the dinosaur is a fiberglass replica of a Tyrannosaurus rex, one of the most famous and fearsome dinosaurs to have ever roamed the Earth.

    45 minutes

  • The Hoodoos

    The Drumheller Hoodoos are one of the most striking natural wonders in Alberta’s Badlands, offering visitors a chance to marvel at a unique and surreal landscape. These tall, thin spires of rock have been shaped by centuries of erosion, creating an almost otherworldly sight. Standing like ancient sentinels, the hoodoos are made of soft sandstone, capped by harder, more durable rock formations that protect them from the elements. Over time, wind and water have sculpted these spires into distinctive, mushroom-like shapes, with some reaching heights of up to 7 meters (23 feet).

    45 minutes

  • Atlas Coal Mine National Historic Site

    The Atlas Coal Mine is a fascinating historical site in Drumheller, offering visitors a glimpse into the region’s industrial past. Once one of the most productive coal mines in Alberta, the Atlas Coal Mine operated from 1936 to 1979 and played a vital role in the development of the Canadian West. Today, it stands as a well-preserved museum and heritage site, providing an immersive experience of early 20th-century mining life.

    30 minutes

  • N/A

    The Star Mine Suspension Bridge is a hidden gem in Drumheller, offering both a breathtaking view and a fascinating piece of local history. Located near the Atlas Coal Mine, this iconic bridge spans across Red Deer River, connecting the valley’s rugged terrain with the Star Mine site, which was once a coal mining operation. The bridge was originally built in the 1930s to transport coal miners and materials from one side of the river to the other. Today, it stands as a remarkable relic of Drumheller’s mining heritage.

    30 minutes

  • Royal Tyrrell Museum

    The Royal Tyrrell Museum in Drumheller is one of the world’s premier paleontological museums, renowned for its impressive collection of dinosaur fossils and its role in advancing the science of paleontology. Located in the heart of Alberta’s Badlands, the museum offers an in-depth look into the ancient past, showcasing more than 130,000 fossil specimens spanning millions of years of Earth's history.

    The Little Church in Drumheller is a charming and unique landmark, offering visitors a peaceful retreat with a touch of whimsy.

    15 minutes

  • Horseshoe Canyon

    Horseshoe Canyon in Drumheller is a breathtaking natural wonder, offering visitors a chance to explore one of the most striking landscapes in Alberta's Badlands. Located just outside of Drumheller, this canyon is named for its distinctive horseshoe-shaped curve, created by centuries of erosion and weathering.
