Deserves to be much, much better-known!
Waterton Lake National Park的点评
点评:This Park is located over 3 hours drive from Calgary but that is a very scenic journey in itself. The Park is stunningly beautiful, which ranks alongside the better-known Banff and Jasper National Parks. I cannot understand why Waterton isn't as famous. It has considerably lesser facilities, in terms of shops, etc., so perhaps this accounts, in part, for it attracting fewer visitors. They don't know what they are missing!
It is important to note that many of Waterton's facilities are closed over the winter, with many already shut up by the time we visited in early October.
There are umpteen trails spread around the Park and, in season, many waterborne activities available. Many days could be spent experiencing the sights, etc. of Waterton but a good feeling for its natural treasures can be obtained in a one-day trip.
In summer, it is possible to enter the U.S. from the Park; either by road or across the lake itself.
翻译:这个公园距离卡尔加里有 3 个多小时的车程,但这本身就是一次风景优美的旅程。公园美得令人惊叹,与更著名的班夫国家公园和贾斯珀国家公园相媲美。我不明白为什么沃特顿不那么出名。它的设施(如商店等)要少得多,所以也许这在一定程度上解释了它吸引的游客较少的原因。他们不知道他们错过了什么!
值得注意的是,沃特顿的许多设施在冬季关闭,当我们在十月初访问时,许多设施已经关闭。
公园周围分布着无数条小径,在旺季,有许多水上活动可供选择。可以花很多天来体验沃特顿的景色,但一日游就可以感受到它的自然宝藏。
在夏天,可以从公园进入美国;无论是通过公路还是穿过湖泊。
