Alberta's capital, Edmonton, is a young city that loves any excuse to go out on the town. It's a major cultural centre with immersive museums, live theatre, inspiring art galleries and countless festivals.History is brought to life at Fort Edmonton Park, or feed your curiosity at the Royal Alberta Museum whose expansive galleries will immerse you in stories of Alberta's people and natural environment. For natural attractions, blaze your own trail through the North Saskatchewan River Valley which has a whole lot of green space to explore or, escape the city buzz and head to Elk Island National Park where you can hang out with free-roaming bison.
Summer is generally considered the best time to visit, as the days are warm with lots of sunshine, and it’s when most of the cities festivals take place. Winters are cold, with snow, and run from November to around mid-March, although you’ll still find lots to see and do.
Flights to Edmonton take around 14½ hours from the UK, with one stop.
