8 Thrilling Places In Southern Alberta (Besides Banff)

This one of my favorites, and I dream of it. I love your other tunes, but this one sticks in my psyche and comes to me while sleeping.❤️

Alberta is awesome! Born and raised in Lethbridge Alberta 🇨🇦

Great job! In the Kananaskis, the pass that you mention is the “Highwood Pass”, not Highland Pass. Opens each year around June15 until October 15th. It is also the highest paved road in Canada!

I’m born and raised in Red Deer, and I got to say this video is fantastic for ideas. And he didn’t hit them all. But what a fantastic list to start on. Great job.

no thanks. no need for alberta for anything, incl banff when switzerland exists

What about Livingston Hatchery or Raven fish hatchery. 😊

Yup Banff was awesome …… up until about 1975 . The decline has no definite starting point.
60’s were the best years for me to visit banff. The area is gorgeous but the crowds and commercialization is too much for me 🤮

amazing video, so blessed to be born in Alberta.

The entire Province is gorgeous it’s my home born and raised! My late wife and I visited all of these sites her favourites were lundbreck falls and CNP ❤

Wonderful video.... Thank you...

Thanks for all your videos Chris!

There's a place in Kananaskis , 15 minutes west of Bragg Creek called the Canyon Creek Ice cave. It is has a wall of ice at the back which is there throughout the entire year.. If you haven't been there, I would recommend it!

Heret one for you younsters:
If you've got bad news
You wanna kick them blues
Cocaine.
She don't lie
Cocaine.

There’s also cactus around Drumheller, which is super rare in Alberta

Goofs

I’m from Ontario but I’ve been to most of these places. Very good and well presented video, thanks.

There is no highland pass in Kananaskis, there is a highWOOD pass though. We've been to every place you mentioned except Cypress hills and red rock coulee, both places we'd like to visit. The campground at Dinosaur provincial park is HOT with no shade, not recommended for tenting.

This is a great video, thank you!
I'm 50 from Quebec and I just started exploring the rest of our beautiful country, it really is amazing.
I added these places to my map, can't wait to see them in person!

Where is the place name on your first photo in the introduction section ?
Thanks

Wolf Santuary west of Cochrane!

i just visited frank slide and head smashed in buffalo jump! very interesting ❤🦬🪨

Yeah Red Rock Coulee I have gotten away with giving myself nude mud baths 🛁 out there when there is nobody around at all I love that desolate place where I can get away with having a mud bath in the nude unlike the other places on the list there!

As an Ontarian new to Alberta, this is dope, thanks Chris!

My bedroom.

You definitely nailed the top spots. I always remind everyone of the bonus spot just outside AB which is Going To The Sun Road and Many Clacier, make sure it is on your bucket list. Banff is over crowded.

Cant afford rent here in Alberta anymore going to have to move to Bagdad :D

You didn't include Shamed In Head Buffalo Jump, it's amazing and a good 3 to 4 hr interpretative building that gives the history of the Indians in the area. A must see.

Lived in Alberta for 60 years - LOVE IT! GREAT for touring on a Motorcycle!
Oh yeah - It's NOT Highland Pass - it's the HighWOOD Pass, and follows the Highwood River. This is where the famed Lost Lemmon Mine is supposed to be, although it's never been found (obviously), and it's the highest (in Altitude) paved road in Canada.

#1 YOU MISSED THE MEDICINEHAT BADLANDS GUARDIANS GEOGLYPHS SITE! it's on the opposite side of medicinehat from red rock Coulee , aka the ne not the sw. every site especially waterton is epic. i visited every site you've highlighted in this video, in my Badlands tour last summer

You should be a tour guide!!! Awesome video presentation, so many great places, thanks - now I am drawing up a list of where to go on my next visit to Canada, Cheers from Western Australia 🇦🇺. Sky Unlimited Visual Media

I also enjoyed Rosebud, just south of horseshoe canyon, and the Bar U Ranch, south of Longview.

What a neat video! I'm very interested in Dinosaur Park, Drumheller, and Kananaskis.

Red rock er that comes from Paulo Brazil, continues through New Brunswick and Alberta right over ta from China.

how do you consider Banff to be in southern Alberta????? Also, I'm not sure who told you there's no snakes in the drumheller badlands, but I would take that advice with a grain of salt !!!! Bull snakes have been found as far north as Trochu in the red deer river valley now, and if there's bull snakes ....... As well, did you miss Head Smashed In buffalo jump, while you were doing the crowsnest pass? Very cool and informative place to visit!!

Such great choices for this video. I've found a few new places to explore as well. Thanks!

Lol no snakes in drum hahahahhaha. There are lots of snakes including rattle snakes

Missed Head Smashed in heritage site, a Buffalo jump.

Red rock boulders are Glacial erratic's... Rocks carried along by a glacier and then dropped when the glacier melted...

Kananaskis is underrated

Missed an absolute gem - Dry Island Buffalo Jump provincial park. Easily one of the most beautiful spots in all of Alberta

You missed Head Smashed In Buffalo Jump!

BTW… It’s not the Highland Pass, it’s the Highwood Pass that runs through K- Country

Your videos are excellent, keep up the good work!

I really really really enjoyed this video very very very much !!!!!!!!!!!

Bar U Ranch, Okotoks Erratic, Diamond Valley, Longview, Rowley are just a small handful of amazing places you never listed.

What's the story behind the burn is tree? Why are the rocks red? Thanks for your great video 👍

Red Rock Coulee in Orion, Alberta is also cool. Huge spherical red rocks

The HooDoo’s location in Drumheller does charge a parking fee. I believe it is $5.
