THINGS WORTH THE DRIVE 🚗✨ | PART 4 | Kleskun Hills
Okay, this one seriously feels like a little piece of the Badlands hiding right here in Northern Alberta. 🤎
📍 Kleskun Hill Natural Area
Just a short drive outside of Grande Prairie, Kleskun Hills is such a fun spot when you want to get outside without committing to a huge adventure. Think rolling hills, unique rock formations, prairie views and trails that are perfect for wandering and exploring. 🥾🌾
It’s one of those places that makes you stop and think, how is this basically in our backyard?!
Pack some water, throw on your runners or hiking shoes and spend an afternoon exploring — and definitely bring your camera because the landscape here is SO good for photos. 📸
✨ Why it’s worth the drive:
The scenery feels completely different from what you normally see around Grande Prairie, it’s easy to turn into a quick little day trip, and there’s plenty to explore without having to travel far.
Have you been to Kleskun Hills before? 👇 Or is this one getting added to your summer list?
