Waterton National Park
Commonly referred to as "where the prairies meet the peaks" Waterton Lakes National Park offers some breathtaking views, thunderous waterfalls, and beautiful peaks.
​
Located in the south western most portion of Alberta, very near Montana, Waterton National Park is one of the smallest and least visited Parks in the Canadian Rockies - it is roughly 505km (195 mi) in size and receives roughly 500,000 visitors a year.
​
Waterton certainly doesn't have the extensive hiking trails found in Jasper, or the activities found in Banff, but the beauty and tranquility make it a must see in the Canadian Rockies!
Despite being in a relatively isolated part of Alberta, Waterton Lakes National Park is one of the easier National Parks to get to in the Canadian Rockies.
​
Waterton is less than a 3 hour drive from Calgary, and the drive there is absolutely beautiful.
