Red Deer City Overview
(Go to the Red Deer Sport Hotels Section)

Red Deer's gently rolling parkland is deeply cut by the canyon of the Red Deer River. The scenic beauty, rich local history, remarkable attractions, and friendly hospitality combine to make a visit to Red Deer a good time. The name Red Deer comes from the Scottish settlers who mistook the numerous elk in the area for the red deer of their homeland. In 1882, pioneers first settled the area, and in 1901 Red Deer was incorporated as a town, the population was 323. 1913 marked the year that Red Deer was incorporated as a city.

The Central region, the heartland of Alberta, longs to be discovered. Quaint villages and towns are home to a plethora of museums and craft shops, each devoted to the history of the local area. The many lakes in this area make the region ideal for anyone who enjoys fishing! Other popular outdoor activities include canoeing, hiking and camping. The many rodeos and country fairs ensure that Central Alberta offers something for everyone. Central Alberta extends from the prairie in the east to foothills in the west, providing a cross-section of the province for touring delight.

Red Deer's economy is driven, to a large extent, by small business operators who have chosen to establish and grow in our community. Citizens have a vigorous entrepreneurial spirit and a strong work ethic. Central location and rich resource base provide growing opportunities for processing and distribution industries and for tourism.

Red Deer has great opportunities for sport tournaments of all kinds, and sport tourism plays a role.
