Gibbons, AB

Gibbons sits about 41 km north of Edmonton via Highway 28, a route plenty of locals drive daily for work, with St. Albert a similar distance away. Shorter hops to Bon Accord (7 km), Fort Saskatchewan (22 km), and Morinville (25 km) make up most of the everyday traffic, while trips to Legal, Bruederheim, Lamont, or Beaumont run longer and are better planned as full outings. EV charging options in town are limited, so charge up before heading out on the longer stretches. Worth a stop: Gibbons is home to what was once the world's largest sundial.
