Forgetmenot Pond, Kananaskis Country, Alberta  Mar. 25, 2026

Set in the foothills and front ranges of the Canadian Rockies, Kananaskis Country stretches across a vast network of protected valleys, dense forests and alpine peaks. Located in Alberta, the region was formally established in 1978, uniting several provincial parks and protected areas under a shared vision of conservation. Clear rivers cut through limestone cliffs, while spruce and pine forests rise toward high mountain passes.
