Highway 24 is a short highway located in southern Alberta east of Calgary.
It begins along the Trans-Canada Highway 10 km west of the town of Strathmore and proceeds south past the hamlet of Cheadle at 2.5 km. At 6 km it crosses Glenmore Trail and intersects with Highway 22X to the west and Highway 901 to the east at a four-way stop nine kilometres leater.
Highway 24 continues south for another 6 km before it turns to the east. 5 km past this turn, the highway passes the hamlet of Carseland.
After Carseland, Highway 817 branches north toward Strathmore while the highway crosses the Bow River on its way south. Wyndham-Carseland Provincial Park is on the east side of this stretch of road.
When Highway 24 meets Highway 547 westbound, it turns east and passes the hamlet of Mossleigh. At Highway 547 eastbound it turns south for 20 km to its end at the junction of Highway 23 and Highway 542 north of Vulcan.
