Sandhills Natural Area

This is truly the treasure of Redwater, as there is something for everyone! Located just 10 km from Redwater near the Sturgeon River, this natural conservation and recreation area offers everything from relaxed observation opportunities, to moderate exercise, to adrenaline-junkie activities! Namely, bird-watching, hiking the many trails, horseback riding, or – our personal favourite – ATV-riding over the sand dunes! The park even has some special drought-tolerant plant species that are native to the region that are worth discovering.

2) STEAM Art and Science Fair

The Redwater Public Library has proven itself as a very active member of the community, and has committed to putting on their very own kid-friendly art and science fair called STEAM! The fair is held between 1 and 3 pm every Thursday, with a new theme every week to keep the everyone interested and coming back for more. What a great way to get kids interested in science and art!
