Way to go, Edmonton!

We landed at the top of our nations’ “National Geographic” equivalent for best cities to visit during winter!  With all the exciting wintery attractions Edmonton has gained in the past year, from the Ice Way (formerly Freezeway) to the majestic ice castle, it’s easy to see why Nat Geo made us number one!  Peep what they said below:

“This northern Alberta city hasn’t historically been known as a tourist destination, but a renewed focus on winter activities might turn that around. From a plethora of festivals — Ice on Whyte, Winter Light and Deep Freeze: A Byzantine Winter Festival — to unique attractions like Candy Cane Lane and heated winter patios, this oft-underrated city is sure to surprise. Want something a bit more active? Sip & Slide toboggan events or Swing ‘n’ Skate at City Hall happen on regular Sundays. Read more about Edmonton’s wintry reinvention in the November issue of Canadian Geographic Travel.”
