Tucked into the extreme southwest corner of the province, Waterton, named in honour of British naturalist Charles Waterton, was first declared a Federal Reserve in 1895 and then a Dominion Park in 1910 and finally a National Park in 1911. Waterton Lakes National Park comprises an area of 525 sq km (325.5 sq. mi.) and abuts Glacier National Park in Montana. In 1995 UNESCO declared Waterton a World Heritage Site. Although relatively small for a national park, this exquisite gem offers spectacular mountain and prairie scenery.
The unspoiled Waterton Townsite is the jump-off point for this lovely park. Outdoor enthusiasts will be entranced with the hiking, climbing and camping opportunities. Walk, bike, horseback ride, picnic, cross-country ski and snowshoe the wonderful variety of trails. Boat, windsurf and fish the Waterton lakes. Take an informative tour of the area by boat or bus. Marvel at the abundant wildlife including elk, bear and cougar. Golf at the beautiful 18-hole local course.
Waterton accommodations include lodges, hotels, motels, inns, campgrounds and hostels.
