Welcome to Valleyview
Valleyview is a town northwest of Edmonton, Alberta, Canada in the Municipal District of Greenview of Census Division 10.
It is located at the junction of Highway 43 and Highway 49, between the Little Smoky River and Sturgeon Lake. Its position, in the junction of the two highways into the Peace Region, has led to the town motto of Portal To The Peace.
The town is the birthplace of Rona Ambrose, the current Canadian Minister of Public Works and Government Services and politician Wyatt McIntyre.
What to visit:
Valleyview's main recreational activity is found at the ice rink, named Polar Palace. This is where the Valleyview's hockey team (the Valleyview Jets) plays regular games in the Peace Region league. Also located in the ice rink is a curling rink which has regular bonspiels. Next door to the Polar Palace is the local pool, which is on the same grounds as the lovely Legion picnic area and water park.
The nearby Sturgeon Lake provides setting for outdoor activities. Two provincial parks are established on its shores: Young's Point Provincial Park (beach, boating, fishing, camping) and Williamson Provincial Park (beach, boating, fishing).
