From Calgary & Canmore: Drumheller Badlands & Horseshoe Canyon Day Tour

Leave Calgary and head
to the Drumheller Badlands

Depart from your booked pickup location and drive about 1.5 hours to Drumheller, a dramatic canyon landscape sculpted by ancient seas and wind. In a small group, your guide brings the geology to life, and there is plenty of time for questions, photos, and breaks.

See the World’s Largest Dinosaur
and the Royal Tyrrell Museum

Spend about 20 minutes taking photos at the World’s Largest Dinosaur in Drumheller. Climbing to the viewpoint at the top costs extra. Pass Jurassic Corner and head to the Royal Tyrrell Museum, where you spend about 2 hours and 15 minutes exploring the palaeontology collection and taking a break.

Admire the Badlands scenery at
the Little Church and Horsethief Canyon

Stop for about 10 minutes at the Little Church on the Dinosaur Trail, then spend about 20 minutes enjoying the scenic drive and canyon views at Horsethief Canyon. Next, drive about 40 minutes to the sights in the south.

Pass the hoodoos and suspension bridge
and finish at Horseshoe Canyon

Photograph the hoodoo rock pillars on the Hoodoos Trail and walk across the Star Mine Suspension Bridge in Rosedale. Enjoy a canyon drive across the 11 bridges on the way to Wayne, with an optional stop at the Drumheller Welcome Sign. Finally, spend about 20 minutes at Horseshoe Canyon, where layers of Earth’s history are etched into the walls, before driving about 1.5 hours back to your drop-off location.
