Lethbridge

Lethbridge straddles the Oldman River in southern Alberta, and its deeply cut coulees have shaped the city’s neighbourhoods, roads and parklands. The steel High Level Bridge, built for the Canadian Pacific Railway in the early 20th century, remains an unmistakable landmark above the river valley. Lethbridge grew through coal mining, agriculture and rail transport, while the surrounding area is part of the traditional territory of the Blackfoot peoples. Fort Whoop-Up, a reconstructed 19th-century trading post, recalls a turbulent frontier era on the northern plains.
