Being the Dinosaur Capital of the World, Drumheller offers visitors the world-class Royal Tyrrell Museum which takes visitors into the not-so-distant past when dinosaurs roamed the earth. It houses the world's largest displays of dinosaurs and Canada's only museum dedicated exclusively to paleontology.

The region is called the Badlands, and back when the dinosaurs were around, the area provided the perfect conditions to create fossils – lots of them! In fact, some of the most important fossil discoveries were found in this area and many of them now live in museums around the world.

With that said, Drumheller offers a lot more than just dinosaur fossils. In fact, there are a ton of awesome things to do in Drumheller including scenic flights and historic tours. You’ll find cute restaurants here and plenty of hiking trails. Honestly, it’s such a fun place to visit and you’ll keep busy exploring all the best things to do and see in Drumheller.

This is a very popular area for birding, hiking, and snowshoeing.

Dinosaurs found in the Horseshoe Canyon Formation include Albertavenator, Albertosaurus, Anchiceratops, Anodontosaurus, Arrhinoceratops and Atrociraptor to name a few! Try your luck and find a few!
