After-school activities in Alberta

The gateway to the Canadian Rockies in western Canada is a fantastic place for outdoor enthusiasts. Enjoy the pristine outdoors and hit the slopes, the links, the rivers or explore the great outdoors on horseback. Calgary and the state capital, Edmonton, are vibrant cities with a wide range of cultural and leisure options. Don't forget your down jacket for those gorgeous, but quite cold, Alberta winters.
