High Prairie Travel Guide

• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide for High Prairie, Alberta.

Welcome to High Prairie, Alberta

The Beaver Nation were among the early settlers to this wild and pristine region of Northern Alberta. They dubbed the area Muskatayosipi in their native Cree tongue, which translates to High Prairie in English. In later years, the community became a stopping point for gold-hungry prospectors on their way to the Klondike during the infamous Gold Rush. Nowadays, this thriving town hosts a variety of events throughout the year, including two popular rodeos: the High Prairie District Amateur Rodeo in May and the Elks Pro Rodeo, each July. The northern location has spawned a thriving tourism industry, and the famed Aurora Borealis, also known as the Northern Lights, offer a dazzling and enchanting vision on crisp winter nights. During the summer months, there are several campgrounds in the vicinity for those looking to bask in the natural beauty of Alberta's North. History buffs will find a bounty of intriguing artifacts at the High Prairie District Museum, while sports fans will enjoy the high energy hockey tournaments held throughout the year at the Sports Palace Arena.
