Explore Horseshoe Canyon, Alberta, Canada

Horseshoe Canyon is a region of badlands surrounded by prairie in the province of Alberta, Canada. There are many many hiking trails in the canyon. One of the best times to visit is at sunrise when the view can be spectacular. The canyon gets its name from its horseshoe shape, defined by two coulees the flow into the Kneehill Creek, a tributary of the Red Deer River. The canyon's two arms are approximately 5 km long each, extending from Highway 9 to Kneehill Creek, at two former mining communities of Dunphy and Gatine. The canyon is located about 17 km west of Drumheller, Alberta, along Highway 9.
