Edson

Edson lies along the McLeod River valley, where boreal forest meets the rolling foothills of west-central Alberta. The town stands on the Yellowhead Highway corridor, a major east–west route linking Edmonton with Jasper and the Canadian Rockies. Established in 1911 as a Grand Trunk Pacific Railway division point, Edson retains a strong rail identity, with local history presented at the Galloway Station Museum. Forestry, rail traffic and access to Alberta’s outdoor country shape its practical, active character.
