1. Tell us about your municipality?

Penhold is a young, friendly, and vibrant community tucked in between HWY2A and the QEII HWY just 10 km south of Red Deer. Our growing community offers recreation amenities and has a wide variety of businesses including a grocery store, pharmacy, hardware store, and many choices for a delicious meal or treat.

2. What makes you different, unique, or stand out?

Penhold is a vibrant community with an abundance of recreational amenities for all to enjoy. There is a variety of trails and walking paths to enjoy as well as six playgrounds, including the Accessible & Inclusive Critters Corner playground, Splash Park, Multi-Use All-Wheel Park (MAP) Pump Track / Skate Park and the Penhold Regional Multiplex.

3. What can guests (local or visiting) expect to experience?

Penhold welcomes visitors to our beautiful community. Take a walk on the trails, enjoy the splash park, bring your bike, scooter or skateboard, and check out the Pump Track / Skate Park. Our growing variety of businesses are looking forward to showing you a warm welcome and the Penhold RV Park is a wonderful place to use as a home base while you explore Central Alberta.

4. What is new or upcoming?

Work is now underway to develop Penhold’s Community Hub south of the Penhold Multiplex that will include more walking paths, washrooms, a gazebo, and a second ball diamond.
