Experience Guide | Tourism Medicine Hat

Keeping it cool During the last ice age, coulees were formed due to massive water erosion. Melting glaciers broke through bedrock, leaving a place people now call home. Medicine Hat’s culture is rooted in the coulees. It’s offered essential resources for Indigenous peoples for thousands of years. Trail running, paddling, mountain biking, and camping in the coulees bring an elevated level of adventure. The clay discovered in the cliffs in the early 20th century fostered creative passions that grow year after year. The landscape shaped the lifestyle. And the sunshine gifts a strong energy across the community. Known as Canada’s sunniest city with 330 days of sunshine, follow the sun to the coulees to Medicine Hat, Alberta, Canada.
