NEW BLOG POSTS! 🥳 I recently knocked another “close-to-home” day trip off my #ExploreAlberta list ✅—visiting the Town of @StonyPlainAB (actually over two days because there was so much to do!!) and I'm sharing where you should eat, shop, experience arts, culture and more in not one but TWO new Travel Guides over on my blog. 🥰🥳 (Tap the link in my bio to read the guides!)

The lovey little Town of Stony Plain is located in Parkland County, just 30 minutes west of Edmonton, making it an easy destination for an after-work or weekend/day trip!

You might be surprised to learn that Stony Plain is a serious shopping hub!! There’s so many locally-owned shops here, you could spend a full day just shopping!! Many of their Main Street stores are also offering discounts if you shop before end of October! 🚗

Another thing you may not know about the town is they’ve got over 39 historical murals that are part of a self-guided Mural Tour you can do to learn all about the town’s history! I’ve also (of course) mapped out additional Instagrammable Walls you should check out during your visit (including a coveted angel wings 👼🏻wall! 🥰)

Read my Stony Plain, Alberta Travel and Shopping Guides at the link in my bio! My trip + blogs were sponsored by the Town of Stony Plain. 🙏🏻
