Did You Know?
The Swan Capital of Canada
Grande Prairie isn’t just a hub for adventure—it’s also home to one of the largest Trumpeter Swan populations in Canada! Every spring, these graceful birds return to the Peace Country’s lakes and wetlands after a winter spent farther south.
Trumpeter Swans were once endangered, but conservation efforts, including right here in northern Alberta, have helped their numbers soar. Keep your eyes peeled along lakeshores and marshes from April to October—you just might spot a swan gliding by.

Art in the Alley: Murals That Move
Every alley has a story. In downtown Grande Prairie, those stories are told in bold brushstrokes, vivid colours, and powerful images that turn onceoverlooked backlanes into unforgettable public galleries. This is Art in the Alley—a creative movement transforming the city’s core into an immersive, open-air art experience.
Whether you’re wandering through downtown for coffee, cocktails, or window shopping, you’re likely to stumble across one of these eye-catching murals. And once you do, it’s hard not to stop and take it all in. These aren’t just pretty backdrops for selfies (though they’re perfect for that too)—they’re emotional, imaginative, and often deeply personal reflections from some of our region’s most talented creators.
Turning Walls Into Windows for Connection
Launched by the Grande Prairie Downtown Association, Art in the Alley was born out of a bold idea: what if the spaces we overlook every day—alleys, side walls, and in-between places—could become points of beauty, inspiration, and connection?
Thanks to a $20,000 grant from the
City of Grande Prairie, the Downtown Association began partnering with local businesses and artists to bring this vision to life. The goal? To make the City Centre a destination in its own right—one where art, stories, and culture live around every corner.
Today, you’ll find murals nestled between businesses and wrapped around storefronts, creating unexpected visual surprises throughout the core. From Nordic Court to Better Than Fred’s, Latitude 55 to Off the Wheaten Path, more and more local spaces are becoming part of this living canvas.
Meet the Artist Behind the Movement
Many of the murals currently gracing downtown Grande Prairie were created by local artist Serena Love—whose name, fittingly, reflects the warmth and humanity she pours into her work.
Her pieces go beyond visual impact. They speak to resilience, identity, memory, and healing. At 92 Bev Co., for instance, “Strength” depicts a bull floating inside a balloon—a curious, whimsical image that quietly reminds us how strength often comes in unexpected forms.
Shop the Peace: Where Local Charm Meets
Big-Name Convenience
Shopping in the Grande Prairie region isn’t just about ticking things off a list—it’s an experience. One that blends the ease of big-name retailers with the kind of local charm and discovery you only find in smaller, tight-knit communities. Whether you’re on the hunt for a unique gift, refreshing your wardrobe, or grabbing last-minute gear for a backcountry getaway, you’ll find more than you expected—and probably something you didn’t know you needed. This is where rugged meets refined. Where a handmade candle and a pair of cowboy boots share shelf space with premium yoga gear and power tools. With welcoming storefronts, passionate local owners, and an everevolving shopping scene, the Grande Prairie region is northern Alberta’s go-to retail destination—with a few surprises tucked in between.
Downtown Grande Prairie: Local Love & Hidden Gems
There’s something special about the heart of Grande Prairie. Our downtown core is completely walkable, filled with vibrant shops, independent boutiques,
and welcoming spots to grab a coffee or a bite in between stops. You’ll find everything from locally crafted goods and summer gear to artwork, gifts, and home décor you won’t see anywhere else.
Start at the Grande Prairie Farmers’ Market, where small-batch preserves, fresh baking, handmade crafts, and locally grown produce fill the stalls with colour and energy. From there, explore spots like Fashionista for ladies’ wear, or check out Sportswear Plus if you’re looking to customize something personal or promotional.
You’ll find retail therapy here comes with friendly conversation, thoughtful service, and maybe even a recommendation for your next local adventure.
Prairie Mall & Surrounding Stops: The Hub of It All
Looking for one-stop convenience with a bit of everything? Prairie Mall is the largest indoor shopping centre north of Edmonton, offering a wellrounded mix of national retailers, local shops, and family-friendly food stops. You’ll find the latest fashion, home goods, tech, and more—all under one roof.
Need to check a few more boxes? Within a short drive are hidden
gems like Keddie’s Tack & Western Wear, a longtime local go-to for everything cowboy—from boots to saddles to rugged Peace Country style. And if you’re on the move, nearby businesses like Water Express and Tiresmith help you stay fueled, hydrated, and road-ready.
Westgate & 116th Street: Adventure-Ready Shopping
Out west, the Westgate and 116th Street retail district is a perfect preadventure pit stop. It’s where you’ll find big-box convenience—think Costco, Home Depot, and Winners—alongside practical shops for camping, fishing, and road trip essentials.
Swing by the Westgate Business Park to stock your cooler, fill up the tank, and grab a few new lures for your next lake day. It’s also a great place to gather supplies for longer outdoor excursions or to outfit your camper or RV for a weekend escape.
Small-Town Finds: Peace Country Hospitality
Just beyond city limits, you’ll discover the kind of shopping that’s hard to replicate—rooted in local culture, shaped by the land, and full of unexpected treasures. Communities like Beaverlodge, Sexsmith, and others
are home to makers, outfitters, and retailers who know exactly what life in the north demands—and how to meet it with style.
A standout example? Trapper Gord Homestead & Survival, where you can find everything from bushcraft tools and tents to warm-weather wear that holds up when conditions get wild. Whether you’re chasing solitude in the bush or prepping for your next camping trip, this is the kind of place that outfits your entire Peace Country lifestyle.
One Region. Endless Finds.
From urban shopping to rural gems, the Grande Prairie region is made for the curious shopper—the one who loves wandering a new street, stumbling across the perfect keepsake, or chatting with a shop owner about their story. Whether you’re here for a weekend or a local looking to rediscover your own backyard, every outing offers the chance to find something new.
Shop big. Shop small. Shop your way. And if you stumble upon a shop you love, let us know! Tag #GPTourism, #untappedNWAB, #unfilteredNWAB or #unforgettableNWAB and share your favourite finds—we’re always looking for the next great local treasure to highlight.

Greens, Views & Peaceful Fairways: Golfing in the Grande Prairie Region
Bear Paw – Par 3 Golf Course
Grande Prairie • 9 holes
780-402-8777 • gobearpaw.ca
Looking for your next great golf getaway? Here in the Grande Prairie region, we do golf a little differently. It’s not just about the scorecard—it’s about long summer days under a big blue sky, the call of birdsong in the trees, and the simple pleasure of a well-struck shot landing just where you want it. It’s peaceful. It’s scenic. And it’s one of Alberta’s best-kept golfing secrets.
Tucked into the northern edge of the province, Grande Prairie’s golf courses are a refreshing mix of approachable and challenging. You’ll find classic tree-lined fairways that reward precision, open greens that beg for a power drive, and clever layouts that keep the game interesting round after round. But what really sets our region apart is the atmosphere—calm, spacious, and welcoming. No rush. No crowds. Just time to enjoy the game at your own pace.
Golfers here enjoy more than just quiet fairways. Many of our courses are located in stunning natural settings—bordered by forest, nestled near the river, or perched with panoramic views of the Peace Country landscape. It’s not unusual to spot a deer quietly crossing the green, or to pause and
take in the way the light filters through the trees as you line up your next shot.
And let’s talk about those long summer days. With extended daylight hours well into the evening, you’ve got plenty of time to fit in a full round—and maybe even sneak in a twilight nine before sunset. Several courses offer late-day specials that let you make the most of it, whether you’re wrapping up a workday or winding down your road trip.
Grande Prairie Golf & Country Club
Grande Prairie • 18 holes
780-532-0340 • gpgolf.ca
What’s more, the clubhouse culture here hits just right. You’ll find patios made for lingering, cool drinks served with a smile, and menus that go beyond the basics. Think wood-fired pizza, hearty local fare, or sweet summer treats you can take to-go. It’s the kind of place where post-round hangs are just as much a part of the day as the golf itself.
First-time players, families, and seasoned golfers alike can all find a place here. Some courses are perfect for beginners or those introducing little ones to the game—with 9-hole options, driving ranges, and even glow-in-the-dark golf nights that turn an evening round into an all-ages adventure.
The County operates ten parks and campground facilities. Every campground has a golf course within a 20-minute drive. Walk where the dinosaurs did, follow the wagon trail of the first pioneers, let the wind carry you across a lake, or just unwind, relax and learn something new. County campground season is May 15Oct 15 each year. To BOOK ONLINE go to: www.countygp.ab.ca/campgrounds

Winter Adventure Awaits in the Region
Here in the Grande Prairie region, moment.
Snowmobiling is part of the culture up here. With endless trails and fresh backcountry powder, sledders can spend days carving through the wilderness, chasing thrills and crisp mountain air.
Prefer the slopes? From downhill skiing to tubing, local favourites like Nitehawk, Spring Lake, and Little Smoky offer runs for every skill level—and plenty of warmup spots afterward. For a slower pace, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing let you wander through snow-dusted forests and open trails at your own speed.
There’s no winter without ice. Lace up your skates at one of our many outdoor rinks, or hit the curling rink and test your aim. If you’re craving more speed, catch an ice racing event—or take the wheel yourself and feel the adrenaline fly.
And don’t forget to bring a sled. Tobogganing is always in season here, with hills ready for laughter, races, and the simple joy of the climb back up. Or, slow things down with a peaceful afternoon of ice fishing—nothing beats the quiet, the tug on the line, or the chance to bring home your catch.
Wrap it all up with a local winter festival, where you’ll find sleigh rides, skating parties, sweet maple treats, and more.
From cozy adventures to high-octane thrills, winter in Grande Prairie is anything but boring. Bundle up—it’s going to be a good one.

Today, the area near Wembley and Pipestone Creek is one of the richest dinosaur bonebeds in North America.
You can see real fossils and learn more about Alberta’s prehistoric giants at the incredible Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum. It’s a must-stop for any explorer—young or old!

BEZANSON
In 1915, the old Bezanson town site had twenty buildings, including a hall, general store, hotel, and bakery. Enormous efforts continue to maintain the heritage and revitalize the unique treasures of this community.
The Old Bezanson town site has had many improvements made over the last few years. Arborists have cleaned the deadfall and others are working to reclaim the area with more defined campsites, ball diamond, walking trails, a playground, and historic building markers. A full booklet has also been published that focuses on the diverse plant life of the old Bezanson town site that features native flowers, shrubs, and trees that have not been identified anywhere else in the Peace area.
The Glen Leslie Church was designated a Provincial Historic resource in 2011. It is currently one of the only pre-1920’s structures left in the area. In 2016, the Glen Leslie Church Preservation Group was presented with the Heritage Conservation Award in recognition of the restoration project. The heritage value of the building lies in its architectural significance as a rare example of a log church with exposed exterior walls. The Church and surrounding grounds make a spectacular backdrop for photos and special events of all factions can also be easily facilitated at the site.

BEZANSON COMMUNITY EVENT CENTRE
Bezanson is a community rich in history and the community hall was significant to the development and growth of the community. The Bezanson Community Memorial Hall was built in 1949 after the first log hall (built in 1923) burnt down. This lease land obtained from the Department of Lands & Mines also included the development of the stampede grounds, curling rink, ball diamonds, and in later years the horse arena which replaced the stampede grounds. Bezanson Community Memorial Hall was incorporated under the Societies Act in 1950 and in 1981, the Bezanson Agricultural Society was incorporated under the Agricultural Societies Act and both the Bezanson Memorial Hall Board and the Bezanson Curling Club were brought under the Ag umbrella. Still at the core of the Bezanson Agricultural Society are values of family, friendship and community service.
At the Bezanson Agricultural Society, our purpose is to enrich this community with opportunities that align with these core values. From toddlers to school children, to our
seniors, there is something that everyone can participate in. The Bezanson Community Event Centre is owned and operated by the Bezanson Ag Society which proudly maintains several of Bezanson’s finest facilities and hosts numerous community events. As well as educational, agricultural and recreational programs. The Bezanson Community Event Centre hosts fitness classes, pickleball, children and youth slo-pitch and soccer programs, sports clinics and camps, dances, Bezanson Markets, seasonal events a well as providing an outdoor riding arena and ball diamond.
The new addition of the Knelsen Centre built onto the Bezanson Memorial Hall now includes the Buffalo Gravel Gym and both of these facilities are available to rent and can accommodate any type of event: weddings, fundraisers, anniversaries, family reunions, funerals, sporting events, sports tournaments and more. Camping is available on the grounds for weekend rentals.
HEAD INTO THE HILLS, TO KLESKUN HILL MUSEUM THAT IS!!
WELCOME TO KLESKUN HILL MUSEUM & PARK
Bring your back pack, snacks, water, and after walking through these unique hills and virgin grasslands you will want to let your mind go back in time as you visit the little settlement that makes up the Kleskun Hill Museum.
There you will find, next to the Edson Trail, East Kleskun School #3635 which opened in September 1919 with Miss Dorothy Morrison as teacher. Prior to this, from March 1919 to June 1919 classes were held in the William Calliou house which was then unoccupied. In September 1919 the new school was ready. Most of the pupils were Austrian, Indigenous or Metis. Later on more English speaking pupils came. The classroom looks much like it did back then. Close to the school sits the original, restored, teachers residence, the Teacherage, complete with pertinent antiques.
Other original, restored, historical buildings making up the little village are the Church, the General Store complete with living quarters attached, and two log houses; The Manning House and The Griko House dating back to 1914 and 1929. One house served as Kleskun Hill post office and the other house has walls finished using the wattle and daub technique. Last, but not least, is the Turner Barn built in 1929 and a Blacksmith Shop, from the Buffalo Lakes area built in 1914. The blacksmith shop was taken apart log by log, numbered and reassembled at the museum. Displayed in all the buildings are artifacts, memorabilia, and stories related to the buildings and area.
for day’s activities. Being beside the river presented the opportunity to increase the array of events, one of which, the greased pole walk. Tales are told of folk, unsteady on their feet by this time, dressed in their best suit, white shirt and tie, landing in the river.
After being moved to the present site, a circular race track was added. The horse races were taken very seriously by many. Dorothy Dewar tells of the time their car broke down on Liberty’s hill on route to the rodeo. Bob Dewar walked into Liberty’s for assistance in fixing the vehicle. Dorothy was afraid of this taking too long so she unloaded her horse and rode to the Rodeo grounds (4 miles). Just as she got to the gate, she heard her race being called. She yelled “Wait for me!” As her horse was ready and warm from his walk, she won the race.
Ball games were also a bIg hit. Roy Nichol coached a local ball team in the 1930’s on whose team Patsy Martin was a player. She doesn’t remember whether they won many games or not but admits they got to know the Elmworth and Halcourt girls, many of which are still friends today.
As well, we also had the riding events that everyone eagerly awaited. The story is told of how children could not ride steers without the permission of their parents. Whenever Wayne Chamberlain was present, he instantly became the consenting parent of many an inspiring rider. And of course there was the bronc riding! There was many times one pair of chaps served every contestant. When it
came time for the bucking, the horses were snubbed to another horse or else someone held the bucking horse down while another person chewed on the horse’s ear as the rider mounted then the blindfolded was lifted Rid’em cowboy! (The invention of the Wild Horse Race).
To our knowledge the sports had been cancelled only one year and this was because of rain. Many a time it was so dusty! When dance time came, everyone moved to the hall and the dust just followed them!
We offer a big thank-you to Albert, Stella & Lewis Holtz, Pearl Cook, Arlene Martin, Neil O’Connel, Bob and Dorthy Dewar, Patsy Martin, Percy Hunkin, Beaverlodge to the Rockies, the Isabel Campbell Archives and the Herald Tribune for the above information.

by wonderful green space which provides great places for picnics, frisbee, horseshoes and family time alike. This area is an excellent spot for bird watchers to check many local species off their list, hosting species of both marsh lands and Boreal Forests. Wembley is the gateway to the dinosaurs and is the home of the 41,000 square foot, state-of-the art Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum. The Pipestone Creek area, located south of the Town of Wembley, has received international attention due to the discovery of the world’s Pachyrhinosauruslargest(“thick nosed” horned dinosaur) bonebed. The Pipestone Creek site contains hundreds of dinosaur skeletons and is one of the best horned dinosaur bonebeds found in North America. The Dinosaur Museum is a world class museum. The Museum and the Dinosaur Bonebed are a major tourism destination site
for travelers from around the world.
According to the Northwestern Polytechnic (formerly Grande Prairie Regional College) paleontology program, it’s a theory that during a migration more than 70 million years ago, a herd of the thick-nosed, plant-eating Pachyrhinosaurus tried to cross a river in a flood. The animals may have panicked and similar to the mass mortality of a Quebec caribou herd in the ‘80s, the dinosaurs died in the flood. It’s theorized the carcasses were washed down river until they settled in a final location. Once there, the bones were disarticulated, like a puzzle. Bonebed tours are offered on a regular basis.
