Height of the Rockies Park

A beautiful wilderness sunset.

This Provincial Park borders Alberta's Peter Lougheed Park, the Banff National Park and the Elk Lakes Provincial Park. 

The park contains wildlife values that exceeds those in National Parks.  It contains a large concentration of mountain goats and is also a key habitat for grizzly bear, wolf, elk, bighorn sheep and trophy cutthroat trout. 

This park also contains prehistoric trails as it was part of the route of the Palliser and Overlander expedition.  Hiking, fishing, climbing, horseback riding, camping, picnicking and wildlife viewing abound.  All forms of mechanical travel, including mountain biking, are prohibited.

Facilities:  Wilderness camping, pit toilets in a few locations and trailheads, open year-round, no fees, no reservations.
