Original Athabasca Landing Trail

In the late 1800s Athabasca Landing was established at the elbow of the Athabasca River where it sweeps south and reaches within one hundred miles or 160 kilometeres of Edmonton. Between the years 1880 and 1914, Athabasca Landing, as the town of Athabasca was then called, became known as the "Gateway to the North," a jumping off point for travelers to the Peace River Country and for traders heading north on the Athabasca River to the Arctic.  Athabasca Landing gained the national stage by 1900 - as the key transportation center linking the Hudson's Bay Company and other independent traders to Canada’s northwest and the Arctic. The Landing Trail, one of Alberta’s first highways, linked Fort Edmonton and the young city of Edmonton to Athabasca Landing and the Athabasca River.
