Situated in the southwestern corner of of the Canadian Province of Alberta, the Waterton Lakes National Park is an impressive expanse of unspoiled wilderness. The park was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1995 and, along with the neighbouring Montana's Glacier National Park, forms the Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park. Visitors can spot an abundance of wildlife including, among others, bears, wolves, cougars, deer, coyotes, bobcats, wolverines, Canadian lynxes, river otters, beavers, and bald eagles. Must-see sights include the crystal-clear Waterton Lakes; the magnificent Red Rock Canyon; and Buffalo Paddock, a fenced-off area of prairie grassland providing the opportunity to witness buffalo in their natural environment.
