Overview

Travel 75 million years back in time — just 90 minutes from Calgary. Towering hoodoos, ancient canyon walls striped with Earth's history, and world-class fossil discoveries await. Whether you're 8 or 80, the Drumheller Badlands delivers wonder at every turn.

The Drumheller Badlands are unlike anywhere else in Canada. Sweeping canyon walls striped with eons of geological history, eerie rock formations rising from the valley floor, and world-renowned dinosaur fossil discoveries that shaped our understanding of prehistoric life.

Visit the Royal Tyrrell Museum, walk the canyon roads, and take in iconic Badlands scenery at every turn — with an expert guide decoding the geology, fossils, and history unfolding around you.

This small-group experience means your guide knows your name, answers every question, and tailors the pace to your group — never rushed, never lost in a crowd. Real conversations, genuine discoveries.
