Welcome To Our Town
Swan Hills is the nearest settlement to the geographical Centre of Alberta, with a population of 1,301. A mere 30 km outside of the town site, along highway 33 is a short trail that leads to a cairn marking the Center of Alberta.
Swan Hills is nestled among virgin boreal and sub-forest; a combination made possible by the high elevation of the area, and one which provides Swan Hills with a rich legacy of rare flora and fauna not found anywhere else in the province. This legacy has been preserved at the Goose Mountain Ecological Reserve located outside the town boundaries.
The Town of Swan Hills is proud to partner with Community Futures Yellowhead East to provide additional supports and grants to small businesses and non-profit organizations within the Town of Swan Hills. The Town is releasing their TOWN OF SWAN HILLS COVID 19 BUSINESS AND NON-PROFIT SUPPORT GRANT today. Please see the attached press release and grant documents for more information and how to apply.
