Drive or Bike Red Rock Parkway, Waterton Lakes National Park, Alberta, Canada
The Red Rock Parkway travels 15 km up the Blakiston Valley through rolling grasslands and ends at Red Rock Canyon. It is the best place to experience Waterton's classic prairie meeting mountain landscape.
During your trip, be sure to stop at the scenic pulloffs, many of which have interpretive displays. At the end of the parkway, a self-guided trail loops around Red Rock Canyon. In June, the wildflowers are spectacular along this road. It is also a great place for wildlife viewing. The parkway is narrow and may not be suitable for larger motor homes.
The Red Rock Parkway offers dramatic views of Mt. Blakiston, the park’s highest peak at 2,940 m (9,645 ft) above sea level. Red Rock Canyon is named for the several, thick, sedimentary beds of red argillite rock.
