Discover the culture

Take an informative tour and learn about the Stoney Nakoda heritage

There is a new attraction on Highway 1 just east of Banff National Park that RV travellers will not want to miss. The new Stoney Nakoda Resort is located 30 minutes west of Calgary—at the junction of Highway 1 and Highway 40—near the community of Morley, Alberta. For those travelling with an RV, it will be of particular interest to know the resort includes a 35-site campground that offers full use of the sani-dump and water fill stations.

In addition to featuring full resort amenities—including three food and beverage venues and a first-class casino—the resort also has a fully stocked retail store that sells everything from apparel to snacks and travel necessities.

All guests at the Stoney Nakoda Resort can receive laundry services and a special rate on local excursions booked through guest services. Staying at the Stoney Nakoda Resort provides a great opportunity for visitors to learn about First Nations history by taking one of the informative cultural and area tours. Discover the rich heritage of the Stoney Nakoda people and take home a souvenir from the resort’s culturally themed retail store.

The Stoney Nakoda Nation is made up of almost 5,000 people who inhabit the valley and surrounding hills of the Bow, Highwood and Big Horn rivers. The primary town of the nation is Morley and the people speak both English and their native tongue of Nakoda Sioux.

The Stoney Nakoda Resort is situated in the Alberta foothills at the edge of the majestic Canadian Rockies. Whether heading east or west on the Trans-Canada Highway, travellers are invited to spend some time at the Stoney Nakoda Resort and explore the region and its history.
