Things To Do - Family Fun

Fun for the entire family

When it comes to family fun, you’ll find it in Alberta SouthWest. In the summer this area is brimming with fun and excitement for families, from camping to golf, Cowboy Poetry gatherings to outdoor symphonic celebrations.  Festivals, rodeos and country fairs abound throughout the region, inviting families to share in the adventure of the beautiful weather, culture and natural surroundings. 

In the cooler months,  Alberta SouthWest transforms itself into the ideal outdoor playground, offering hiking, skiing, cycling, trail rides, snowmobiling, fishing … the list goes on. 

And year round?  From our historical sites and cultural centers to our vacation accommodations, (provide an internal link to where to stay) it’s easy to find the perfect spot for the whole family.

Use the resources below to find out how you and your family can enjoy some of Alberta SouthWest’s unique family fun.
