Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park

Dry Island Buffalo Jump Provincial Park is a day-use park located in the Red Deer River valley. It's characterized by its dramatic landscape – a deep canyon rising unexpectedly from the prairie. Historically, the site was used by Indigenous peoples for buffalo hunting, utilizing the cliff as a 'jump' to harvest animals. Today, the park provides opportunities for outdoor activities like canoeing, hiking, and mountain biking, alongside the chance to appreciate the natural beauty and learn about the area's past. It lacks the amenities found in larger provincial parks, offering a more remote and natural experience.
