Welcome to Peter Lougheed
Peter Lougheed is one of the biggest provincial parks in the province of Alberta. It’s actually located within Kananaskis Country; my favourite hiking destination in the Canadian Rockies.
The park is 304 square kilometres in size and is home to the Kananaskis lakes; the biggest and most visually striking lakes in Kananaskis.
The park offers great hiking trails, fishing, mountain biking, horseback riding, cross country skiing, and multiple campsites (both front-country and backcountry).
