Welcome!
Situated in the Central Peace Country of northwestern
Alberta, Saddle Hills County is located approximately 450 kilometres north
of Edmonton and only 90 kilometres from Grande Prairie. The County is a
medium-sized local government that offers abundant opportunities. Home
to a diverse agricultural community, Saddle Hills County also contains
rich deposits of natural gas and oil for which Alberta is so well known.
With the beautiful Peace River Valley forming our northern
boundary and the Saddle Hills to the south, we offer picturesque landscapes
filled with stunning contrasts and abundant wildlife. Elk, moose and deer
are just a few of the wild animals that roam our deep river valleys, lush
wooded hillsides and rolling plains.
