With a welcoming motto of Be Our Guest, who wouldn't want to visit this vibrant and friendly rural town? Located at the northern tip of the Cowboy Trail at the junction of Highways 43 and 22 Mayerthorpe is just over an hour from Edmonton. Taking some time to stop at this junction and explore all that this town has to offer will be more than worth your while. From trail rides to classic rodeos, agricultural fairs, antique tractor pulls, and golfing to a wide range of outdoor adventure Mayerthorpe offers up a unique slice of western hospitality and adventure.
If western culture is more your thing, Mayerthorpe has a more to offer than you'd think a small town might. Our agricultural history is celebrated in elevator museums and a vintage campground tells a colourful story of our ferry-crossing days. Mayerthorpe welcomes all guests and we mean it when we say "be our guest".
