Athabasca at a Glance
Located in the Athabasca River Valley, Athabasca
is a rural community that is the gateway to Northern Alberta.
Visitors can go on a self-guided tour and explore historic buildings including
the Athabasca
United Church and Old
Brick School, both constructed in the early 1900s. Walk along Rotary Way and
learn about the history and significance of the mighty Athabasca
River, once used for transportation during the fur trade and gold rush. Outdoor
adventurers can head towards the Muskeg
Creek Trail System and enjoy cross-country skiing, jogging or appreciating
nature. The Trans
Canada Trail makes its way through Athabasca, south along the Tawatinaw River
and offers another recreation area. Today, Athabasca is leading the way in long-distance
education at the Athabasca
University, providing programs for students across North America and throughout
the globe. Arts and culture is also prominent during the Athabasca
Country Fringe Festival, an event filled with music and drama.
