Continuous with Glacier National Park in Montana, Waterton in Alberta is one of our favourite hiking destinations.
It’s home to our #6 best hike in the world, Glacier North Circle.
Rachel Tynan from Waterton Park Inns and Resorts recommends the ExperienceWaterton.com hiking page:
Waterton Lakes National Park boasts world class hiking trails with unparalled scenery and the opportunity for many wildlife encounters. There are 255 km (191 miles) of managed trails in Waterton Lakes National Park. Ranging in difficulty from short jaunts to steep advanced treks that can take days. …
Our other favorite hikes in that park:
• Tamarack Trail
• Crypt Lake
• Carthew/Alderson
Besthike world headquarters is Calgary, Canada. We’ve been hiking Waterton for decades. Like Glacier, it’s one of the very best places in the world to see wildlife. (One day we saw 6 bears!)
