Travel Guide

We tried to shoot sunset but were about 10 minutes late. Did get some great colour over the mountains! We were located at the east end of Abraham lake, beside the dam.

Long exposure taken near Preachers Point at Abraham Lake.
Abraham Lake is located alongside the David Thompson Highway between Saskatchewan Crossing and Nordegg, Alberta. In summertime, this artificial lake is a stunning blue-green color which makes for some amazing photo opportunities. There is often a herd of bighorn sheep right along the highway too.
However, mid-winter is when this location really shines! When the lake freezes over, methane bubbles become trapped in the ice, which you can walk or even skate on. You can see right to the bottom. Ever walked on a bubbly, crystal-clear lake? It's a surreal experience and definitely worth checking out.

The hamlet of Nordegg, Alberta, was a former coal-mining town and named after Martin Nordegg and the name probably means “North Corner” in a German dialect. (June 2019)

The room was clean, however the key cards are very finicky, sometimes it won’t work. Also, we we’re really looking forward for the waterpark but their hours is not reasonable. They closed at 9pm so if you’re still roaming around the town you won’t be able to go to the pool at night and in the next ...

Loved our stay and were treated very well by all staff. One of the hot tubs seemed quite dirty and there was garbage around the area left by previous guests. Our room was comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed for our stay.
