Description

Discover nature at its best in Waterton Lakes National Park! A rare gem tucked into the southwestern corner of the province of Alberta, Canada. In this breathtaking part of the world, the majestic Rocky Mountains rise suddenly out of the rolling prairies. Amid the peaks are the lakes of Waterton Lakes National Park, carved out of the rock by ancient glaciers. ...Waterton Lakes National Park borders Glacier National Park in Montana to the south. A place like no other, the uniqueness of Waterton Park is a blend of unusual geology, mild climate, rare wild flowers, and an abundance of wildlife. It is a scene which has remained unchanged for centuries.

Good place to start your hikes!

This hostel is under new management this year, so don't be afraid to ask for things. When we were there (four nights in June) they didn't have their act together. We had to ask for sheets, and pots/pans. The rooms are small but comfortable and the kitchen even smaller, be prepared to eat in shifts since the table only seats four. Close to a ton of hiking trails of every level. And even though we didn't use the pool, it was nice to know we could for a very small fee.
