Known for its pristine beauty, the park is characterized by rugged mountain terrain, sparkling lakes, and diverse wildlife. The stunning Waterton Lake, which spans the border into Montana, USA, adds to the park allure.

The iconic Prince of Wales Hotel offers panoramic views of the surroundings. The park is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, offering hiking trails for all levels, wildlife watching opportunities, and boat cruises on the lake.

Waterton is also recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and part of the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, symbolozing the cooperative conservation efforts between Canada and the United States.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Romane Az

In English et en français 🇬🇧 Originally from Belgium, I arrived in Canada in 2019. Initially for a period of one year, I am fortunate to now be able to call Calgary my home. I have always traveled extensively in Europe and Africa, and I am now discovering North America. During COVID, I explored the length and breadth of Alberta and eastern British Columbia. Being addicted to hiking and backpacking, I have under my belt more than a hundred hikes in this region. It is with pleasure and honor that I introduce you to this unique part of our world! 🇫🇷 Originaire de Belgique, je suis arrivée au Canada en 2019. Initialement pour une durée d'un an, j'ai la chance de pouvoir maintenant appeler Calgary ma maison. J'ai toujours voyagé énormément en Europe et en Afrique, et je découvre maintenant l'Amérique du Nord. Durant le COVID, j'ai exploré en long et en large l'Alberta et l'est de la Colombie-Britannique. Étant accro aux randonnées et aux bivouacs, j'ai à mon actif plus d'une centaine de randonnées dans cette région. C'est avec plaisir et honneur que je vous fais découvrir cette partie unique de notre monde !
