Woolford Provincial Park

Woolford Provincial Park, located near Lethbridge in Alberta’s Southern Rockies, offers riverside fishing, paddling and hiking in a peaceful natural setting. Set along the St. Mary River, this provincial park draws anglers looking to catch cutthroat trout, rainbow trout, pike and walleye. Calm stretches of water make it a scenic spot for canoeing and kayaking, with river views that change with the light and season. On land, visitors can follow maintained hiking trails through a riparian cottonwood ecosystem and watch for wildlife along the way. The park also protects what is believed to be the only stand of narrow-leaved cottonwoods in Alberta’s parks, giving nature lovers a rare chance to experience this unique habitat up close.
