Hoodoo access closed

IMG 7887

On March 27, the Province closed parking lots at provincial parks and historical sites due to safety concerns. Its recommendation is if a vehicle is required to access a park or public land, do not go. Please consider staying closer to home.

Unfortunately, there is still a lot of activity at the Willow Creek Hoodoos. To prevent entry, barriers will now be placed across the access road. While the community appreciates the desire to explore the outdoors and the hoodoos, if an injury occurs, it will put stress on the local health care system.  The town expresses the importance of having available resources for the management of COVID-19.

"We know you love the Drumheller Valley and our landscape but for now we are asking you to stay home and stay healthy. The safety and protection of our community is our priority," states a release from the town.
