It is located 32 km south of Stettler and 64 km north of Drumheller on Highway 56 in the County of Stettler No. 6. Big Valley Alberta began to be settled even before 1910; people realized the value of the rich soil and natural grass known as Prairie Wool.

Most of the land became an ecological reserve to preserve its natural flora.
