Cypress Hills straddles the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan, in the heart of the Canadian prairies. The park is rich in wildlife, offering a woodland refuge for the many animal and bird species found in the prairie region. Nearby Fort Walsh was established in 1875 after more than thirty Assiniboine natives were massacred by white traders, leading to the formation of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
