The Canadian Badlands Passion Play

Deep in the Canadian Badlands, a location famous for its prehistoric attractions, lies a hidden valley where the events of a not-so-distant past echo, a place where ancient Israel is reborn and you can experience, "the greatest story ever told." The 14,000 who come each July are moved to laughter and tears by the dramatic portrayal of the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Drumheller E-Bikes

The Drumheller landscape is filled with variety and diversity. However, it can be very foreboding in terms of heat and terrain. If you would like to feel the wind in your face, not break out in a sweet, suffer from soar aching muscles, or even be out of breathe, you need to rent an e-bike! What’s an e-bike? It’s an electric bike that has five levels of peddle assist or if you don’t want to peddle

Bleriot Ferry

Reviewed By silverbrook - London, Canada

The Bleriot Ferry transports passengers on the very short trip back and forth across the Red Deer River along highway 838. The ride itself is free and the ferry can hold a small number of cars (3-6 I believe). You can ride inside your vehicle, or you can ride outside and listen to the stories and anecdotes of the friendly and informative ferryman. This is a must-do attraction when travelling in the Drumheller area if only for the novelty alone.
