First in a series: Aboriginal tourism in Canada – CTV

July 22, 2015

Part one of our three-part series on Aboriginal tourism kicks off w a visit to Alberta’s Writing-On-Stone Provincial Park & a tour of the rock art found there.

Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park in southern Alberta is home to the largest concentration of rock art on the North American Plains and is as scared to the local Blackfoot tribes as Mecca is to Muslims.

A hike through the hoodoos, rusty-coloured sandstone rock eroded into giant mushrooms, is a fantastic way to spend a couple of hours.

There are places to rent kayaks, inner tubes and paddle boards in the local area.
