Alberta, Canada

In autumn, Alberta, Canada is full of outdoor adventure. In October, the ski season already begins in the Rocky Mountains, and many people travel there for early snow. Autumn is also a perfect time for hiking, because the air is fresh and cool, and the mountains are quiet. One of the most beautiful things to see are the larch trees. In autumn, their needles turn golden yellow before they fall to the ground.

Places to See

Don’t miss out on Banff National Park, one of the most famous parks in Canada. You can go hiking, skiing, or snowboarding, or enjoy the view at Lake Louise and Moraine Lake, which look amazing in autumn. Another great place is Jasper National Park, where you can sometimes see wild animals, like elks and bears.
You can also travel to Edmonton, the capital of Alberta, where you will find West Edmonton Mall, one of the largest shopping malls in North America.
