Elk Island - Alberta


Located less than an hour away from Edmonton, Elk Island National Park of Canada protects the wilderness of the aspen parkland, one of the most endangered habitats in Canada.


This beautiful oasis is home to herds of free roaming plains bison, wood bison, moose, deer, and elk. Also boasting over 250 species of birds, the park is a bird watcher's paradise. Be it for wildlife viewing, hiking, cross-country skiing, picnicking or overnight camping, there is something for everyone at Elk Island National Park.

From its origins in 1906 as a wildlife preserve, to today as one of Canada's 39 national treasures, Elk Island National Park is a haven for public enjoyment and a treasured example of the Southern Boreal Plains and Plateau natural region.
