What to expect

Visit the Waterton National Park, the only park in the world that has three designations, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, an International Peace Park, and a Biosphere Reserve!

Stop at the Prince of Wales Hotel to closely see a true historic Canadian icon. Named after the prince, later King Edward VIII, the building is the park’s most recognized landmark. Continue your tour exploring the tiny, and vibrant Waterton Town before heading to the Cameron Falls. Here you will see crystal clear cascading mountain water rushes steadily over 1.5 billion-year-old Cambrian rock, throwing off a delicate mist that dusts the skin of those who stand around admiring it.

Reach the Red Rock Canyon where the layers of red and green colored minerals offer a brilliant contrast to each other and the lush surroundings. End your tour with a visit to the Okotoks Erratic Big Rock. The boulder lies about 8 km west of the town of Okotoks, and it was formed by dislodged rocks that traveled on top of glaciers thousands of years ago.
