canyon / gorge, interesting place
Horseshoe Canyon is the busiest of Drumheller's two canyons due to its proximity to Highway 9, which runs between Calgary and Drumheller. This is also the spot for canyon helicopter tours and many hiking trails. If you can, aim for a visit at sunrise because the view can be spectacular.
