Peter Lougheed Provincial Park

The drive south from Banff to Peter Lougheed Provincial Park followed the eastern edge of the Rockies. We haven’t seen the prairies yet but they are not far away. It was a lovely drive, the only interruption being a mob of Rocky Mountain Sheep on the road.

This Park was established primarily to alleviate visitor pressure on Banff NP. It didn’t work. The scenery is just as spectacular but there are very few people here. We spent our full day here walking around the Upper Kananaskis Lake.
