Come and enjoy four days of winter fun in the magic surroundings of Waterton Lakes National Park.
The Waterton Winterfest, with snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, horse-drawn carriage rides and other activities, takes place on Family Day weekend in February.
Join us at the Little Prairie picnic shelter on the Akamina Parkway for a hot drink before warming your soul on the ski and snowshoe trails. Bring your own gear or rent skis and snowshoes from the Waterton Lakes Lodge or Waterton Glacier Suites. Guided trips will also be available.

Does a watched plant ever bloom? It sure does. And we need citizen scientists like you to tell us when that happens. The history of plant watching goes back over two hundred years! By watching and recording when selected plants bloom each spring, researchers can track the effects of global climate change in Canada.
