Snow Valley may be known for its winter wonderland vibes, but summer’s grand finale brings a different kind of high-flying adventure. Unleash your inner Tarzan at the Snow Valley Aerial Park, with over 100 games and challenges. With three levels of difficulty, you can start off small and work your way up to full-on monkey mode. Whether you’re testing your athleticism or just playing around, this is the perfect place to enjoy the warm weather while hanging out (literally).
It’s the kind of adventure that makes you realize the sky’s the limit, and there’s no such thing as too much monkey business. As the leaves change, so do your opportunities, so grab the last few weeks to swing, climb, and conquer your fear of heights at this one-of-a-kind treetop adventure. There’s still time to fly high on fall weekends (weather permitting) untill Sept. 30.

Don your straw boater hat and lace up your corset, or at least pretend, because Fort Edmonton Park is calling all history buffs and time travellers. Step through the gates and find yourself in an Edmonton of yesteryear, where fur traders roam, the ’20s roar, and steam trains chug along as if time stood still. From having a bite to eat at the Hotel Selkirk to catching a vintage flick at the Capitol Theatre, there’s no shortage of nostalgia to indulge in. Wander the historic streets and discover Edmonton’s history, one cobblestone at a time. It’s not just a park — it’s a portal to the past, where you can kick it old-school and leave the 21st century behind, if only for a few hours.
