Sitting in Canada’s sunbelt, Medicine Hat boasts 300 days of sunshine every year, and June to September is a great time to book Medicine Hat vacation rentals to make the most of warmer temperatures. However, June gets the most rain of the year, so if you’re keen to avoid wet weather, stick to July, August, and September. Fall is a popular time to visit the parks in and around the city as the deciduous trees along the river change colour. Medicine Hat benefits from warm Chinook winds, leading to a milder winter than most other areas in Alberta — we’re not talking balmy, by any stretch of the imagination, but slightly less frigid temperatures and light snowfall. If you’re interested in engaging in traditional Canadian winter activities, head to Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park, where the elevation is high enough for skiing. January is also the month for the annual Medicine Hat Tongue on the Post Festival, which brings live music to dozens of city venues.
