The west block of Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park is an expansive, forested highland plateau that spans southwestern Saskatchewan and southeastern Alberta. This region is known for its beautiful mix of pine and aspen trees, rolling hills, and deep valleys. Unlike the surrounding prairie, the higher elevation contributes to a cooler and more diverse climate, supporting a rich variety of wildlife, including mule deer, elk, and a wide range of bird species. There are breathtaking ridge-top views, peaceful woodland trails, beautiful lakes, and fantastic geological features, including cliffs and valleys shaped by centuries of erosion.
