Your Opportunity

Nestled in the rolling foothills of southwest Alberta lies the quaint little town/county of Cardston. Just 30 minutes from the majestic Waterton-Glacier International Peace Park, Cardston is the only town that intersects both the Cowboy Trail and Canada's historic Mormon Trail. Rich in First Nations culture, pioneer heritage, cowboy tradition, and performing arts, Cardston makes a hospitable hub from which to experience southwest Alberta and Glacier National Park just across the border in Montana.

If you enjoy an authentic experience, we invite you to saddle up and come to Cardston, a place for adventure, a place to come together, a place to remember!
