A Family Vacation in Airdrie
Take the kids on a mini mockup of the Canadian Pacific Railway in Iron Horse Park. They get a real sense of travelling like a pioneer on these scale models of steam locomotives and carriages.
Pack up a picnic in your home rental and spend the day at the huge Chinook Winds Regional Park with its paved trails, playgrounds, spray park, ball courts and skate park. If you visit in winter, there's a great hill for tobogganing.
Family run and definitely kid-friendly, Yeehaw Play has acres of indoor fun. Play with your kids or relax while you watch from a viewing area. Look out for craft nights and summer day camps.
Annual Airdrie Events
Visit in mid-summer and catch one of the largest rodeos in Canada. Watch the action at this five-day event while the kids can have fun during the day and the adults can enjoy cabaret acts in the evening.
The Christmas season sees the Airdrie Festival of Lights. Wrap up warm after dinner in your home rental and walk around the light displays in Nose Creek Park. You can also take a miniature train ride, get warm next to a handcrafted firepit or have a go at skating on Nose Creek Pond.
Then warm up with hot chocolate and toasted marshmallows before returning to your Airdrie accommodation.
