There are so many winter adventures to do in David Thompson Country.  From hiking and snowshoeing, to frozen waterfalls and wagon rides, here are 13 activities we look forward to this winter.

1. Riverview Country Christmas with wagon rides, Christmas Shop, and many, many lights.

2. Hiking to Crescent Falls west of Nordegg.  Careful! The long hike back up the snow and ice covered road can be exhausting.

Crescent Falls is a beautiful sight all year round. This winter the temperature fluctuated between freezing and thawing most days in December, resulting in an unusual freeze pattern for the falls, creating sort of steps or bumps of ice. In the summer it is a very popular weekend picture spot and campsite, making it best to visit during the week if you can. . . Crescent Falls is west of Nordegg in Clearwater County, part of the David Thompson Country Tourism Region. . . . #CrescentFalls #Nordegg #DTCountry #ClearwaterCnty #AlbertaParks #waterfalls #Alberta #Canada #albertaviews #albertamountains #albertarockies #dailyviewalberta #albertaadventures #yegadventures #yycadventures #albertatourism #discoveralberta #getoutside #hikealberta #explorecentralAlberta #explorealberta #albertawinters #snowfun #travelalberta @alberta_parks

12. Go for a hike on one of the many, many trails all around David Thompson Country.

The view from Mount Stelfox, looking over Abraham Lake and the David Thompson Highway. The Mountain was named after Henry Stelfox, an England born conservationist who settled in the Rocky Mountain House Area and loved exploring the land west of Rocky. You can climb Mount Stelfox from either the Whitegoat Creek Canyon or the Coral Creek Canyon, but you will want to check trail maps for the type of trail you are comfortable with. If you look in the top left corner you can see someone celebrating their summit. Mount Stelfox is west of Nordegg in Clearwater County, part of the David Thompson Country Tourism Region. #MountStelfox #AbrahamLake #Nordegg #DTCountry #ClearwaterCnty #DavidThompsonHighway #hikealberta #climbalberta #albertaviews #albertamountains #albertarockies #dailyviewalberta #albertaadventures #yegadventures #yycadventures #explorealberta #explorecentralAlberta #travelalberta #discoveralberta #albertatourism #picoftheday #getoutside #Alberta
