Carway

Carway, in Alberta’s Southern Rockies, offers a historic border crossing for straightforward travel between Canada and the United States. This small hamlet sits on the international boundary, about 24 km (15 mi) south of Cardston on Highway 2 and opposite Port Piegan, Montana. Travellers can approach via Highway 2 in Alberta or Highway 89 in Montana, making it a practical route for cross-border road trips. Customs services in the region date to 1883 at nearby St. Mary’s Crossing on the Saint Mary River, where the North-West Mounted Police collected duties and patrolled the border. Duty-free shopping is available at the crossing, while Cardston is the nearest place for groceries and everyday supplies.
