Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park
Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, International Peace Park in Montana and Alberta, United States and Canada.
The park combines two national parks across 457,614 hectares of mountains, glaciers, lakes, forests, prairies, and alpine tundra along the international border.
The collaboration between Waterton Lakes and Glacier National Parks began in 1932, establishing the first International Peace Park in world history.
The Blackfoot Confederacy maintains strong ties to these lands, where Indigenous peoples have lived and practiced their traditions for over 10,000 years.
Visitors need separate entrance permits for each park section, with the Chief Mountain Border Crossing connecting the American and Canadian territories.
The park houses over 300 animal species including grizzly bears, gray wolves, and mountain goats across three distinct watershed systems.
