The Canadian Badlands of Alberta is a unique travel and tourism destination in Canada's "Wild West." With scenic drives from several urban centres, the Canadian Badlands has unique coulee landscapes and hoodoo rock formations. The region in Alberta is famous for rich deposits of fossils, including dinosaur bones, unearthed at the UNESCO World Heritage Site Dinosaur Provincial Park and showcased at the world-class Royal Tyrrell Museum. Whether you come to the Canadian Badlands for a day or road trip for a week, it inspires song, spirituality and honest wide-eyed wonder. Plan your ultimate road trip today!
