The beginning of our day trip in August 2017 to Banff National Park lead us through the beautiful Kananaskis County. Highway 40 guided us north winding through the Canadian Rockies.
A few times we stopped to stretch our legs and take pictures.
Around each bend a new sight awaited.
Beauty!
Beauty!
Beauty!
There are various parks within Kananaskis Country. In Peter Lougheed Provincial Park, we pulled into a parking lot, a rest area we thought.
Instead, we learned of a day hike into a mountain meadow. We discussed how wonderful that would be.
My mom wasn’t up for it. We did have our destination planned to Banff National Park specifically to see Lake Louise.
Bighorn sheep were moving along the highway after we left the trail head and parking lot.
Isn’t this baby adorable?
Driving through Kananskis Country I knew I wanted to return and explore, hike, camp and ride horses. My bucket list seems to be growing with every new place I visit. Have you ever visited Kananaskis Country? Would you like to?
