The Red Deer River takes its name from a Cree name meaning elk river, which early Scottish settlers rendered as red deer. Red Deer's Waskasoo Park follows the Red Deer River and its creeks through the city with an extensive network of trails. Red Deer Polytechnic, formerly Red Deer College, gained polytechnic status in 2021. Fort Normandeau, built at a river crossing west of Red Deer in 1885, has been reconstructed as a historic site and interpretive centre.
