Under the same Alberta sky.

When you look out across the prairies towards the horizon, what do you see? Maybe it’s a pink lemonade sunrise, a wheat field waving on an endless prairie, white wind turbines against a bluebird sky or northern lights on a cloudless night.


Rural Alberta provides a feast of special sights; a unique snapshot of the world that’s distinct to each region, each place. From Pincher Creek to Vegreville to Peace Country and all the beautiful places in between, our views are a little different, but we're lucky enough to share this rural way of life under the same Alberta sky.


Show us what you see under your Alberta sky! Please submit your stories and photos that illustrate what you love and what makes you feel grateful about your rural Alberta experience.
