If you’re looking for a day-trip destination, we can help out. Situated 16 miles away, Red Deer is worth getting in the car for. Explore the area starting with Bower Ponds, St. Mary’s Parish and City Hall Park. Locals will also likely point you in the direction of Wetaskiwin, 40 miles away. If you only have time for one attraction here, let it be Wetaskiwin and District Heritage Museum. (But we’d also recommend Wetaskiwin City Hall and Canada’s Aviation Hall of Fame.)
