ALBERTA, CANADA Waterton Lakes National Park Visitor’s Guide Welcome

Waterton Lakes National Park...“the most stunning of the Rocky Mountain Parks,” according to Frommers Travel Guide. Prairie and lofty mountains meet in an unusual combination of landscapes and habitats unique in Canadian National Parks. Abundant and rare wildflower species are found and wildlife is easily seen. Tucked away in the very southwest corner of Alberta,Waterton's 505 square kilometers (195 sq. miles) have a unique geologic history. The Lewis Overthrust continues to expose ancient sedimentary rock. Water sculpts the land with abundant lakes, streams and waterfalls. Climate adds to its drama. Whether you're a back country enthusiast, or someone who'd rather curl up with a good book, Waterton lets you bask in the natural glory of this majestic landscape.

A Brief Cultural History For more than 10,000 years, travelers have made their way to this special place. Over 300 archaeological sites reveal the activities of the first people. European explorers and settlers also left their mark. Lt. Thomas Blakiston, a member of the famous Palliser Expedition, was one of the area's earliest explorers. He bestowed its current name in honour of the 19th century naturalist Charles Waterton. In 1895, Waterton was protected thanks to the efforts of local ranchers including Fredrick Godsal. John George "Kootenai" Brown, a wilderness trapper, became the first Park employee. Around the turn of the 20th century, the discovery of oil in the Park led to the drilling of Western Canada's first producing oil well. The discovery also contributed to the establishment of the Waterton community in 1910. In 1926 the Prince of Wales Hotel was built and has become one of the most scenic images in Canada. Both the Prince of Wales Hotel and Oil City are designated national historic sites.

International Significance Here, nature knows no political boundary. Waterton shares important common borders including those with adjacent Glacier National Park, Montana. Many natural processes are common between the Parks. In 1932, Waterton and Glacier together, were designated as the world's first International Peace Park. The Peace Park concept was spawned by Rotary Clubs in Montana and Alberta to commemorate the long friendship between the United States and Canada. The concept has evolved through time. Today ecosystem management is an important consideration. The fundamental concept remains the same, communicating the concept of peace and friendship. Waterton Glacier International Peace Park was the first of hundreds of peace parks globally. The United Nations recognizes it as an UNESCO Biosphere Reserve and bestowed it with the prestigious World Heritage Site designation.

My Waterton Today, Waterton is an international tourism destination with over 400,000 visitors from around the world. The tiny Waterton community (year-round population 100)greet all who come with the spirit of the Peace Park. The community is steeped in the essence of place and a sense of friendship pervades. Most businesses here are family-based, handed down through time from one generation to the next. Peace Park businesses carry Peace Park values.

Neighbors

Natural communities are valued here and those values transcend Park boundaries to the broader community, a community of private ranchers, landowners and public land managers. Together they work to maintain the natural integrity of this region. This sweeping landscape along highway 22, was so valued to the community that the local government designated it as a Scenic Viewshed. In 1979, Waterton-Glacier were designated Biosphere Reserves by the UNESCO Man and the Biosphere program. This program is designed to support the in- timate relationship between people and their environment.
