[vc_row][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=”12″][vc_column_text]When visiting Western Canada, we often hear about the weird name “Hoodoo.” What is it, exactly? They are called “Fairy Chimneys,” in French. They are large sand columns with a strong hat that protects them from erosion. Found around the world, there are two in Alberta. One series is in the Banff area and the other is near Drumheller, which is the one we’re talking about here.<\/span><\/p>\n

This small stop is easily located from Route 10. There is a large parking lot where two mobile canteens (or not) offer ice cream, doughnuts and ice lemonade. Four toilets are also available for tourists, but I do not recommend them! There are two sets of stairs that can be climbed to observe the landscape and in which one can enter at will. This is where everything becomes more interesting.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”45px”][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”6447″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”6463″ img_size=”full”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=”45px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1541023145121{padding-bottom: 60px !important;}”][vc_column][vc_column_text]Once past the balustrades, one can walk through these sandy hills. Those who like me and my grandmother are somewhat limited because of their age can calmly walk (or run) on \u200b\u200brather level ground. For the more adventurous, it is possible to climb higher peaks and to walk on steeper slopes. I walked to my heart’s content with the help of my new walking stick. I still lack a little practice, but soon I’ll be as experienced as Grandmother.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1461321532240{padding-bottom: 65px !important;}”][vc_column]

Parking provided enough space for tourists, but we had to park the truck and trailer on the road, as there was not enough space for us. The baby carrier or backpack-style child carrier is a must if your child does not walk. Otherwise, it is not very dangerous to let him run as he pleases.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1504252578272{padding-top: 50px !important;padding-bottom: 93px !important;}”][vc_column]
