GRANDE CACHE LABYRINTH PARK

One of the most original sites in Grande Cache is the Labyrinth Park; for thousands of years cultures from all over the world have walked labyrinths for different purposes.

At its most basic level the labyrinth is a metaphor for the journey to the center of your deepest self and back out into the world with a broadened understanding of whom you are.

Take the Journey and give yourself the gift of time at Labyrinth Park – Entrance located at the corner of 97 Ave and 104 St in Grande Cache, Alberta.

WILLMORE WILDNERNESS PARK

Willmore Wilderness Park comprises 4,597 square kilometres of pure, unspoiled mountain wilderness.  The Park is a pristine mountainous area with rugged forest and alpine expanses. The rivers and creeks are crystal clear. The park is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. 

Take time to stop and see Sulphur Gates – one of the most popular attractions to the Grande Cache area. It is a staging area for equestrian users and backpackers going into Willmore Wilderness Park. A short trail provides access to spectacular views of the Sulphur River canyon and the Smoky River where it cuts through the front ranges of the Rocky Mountains. The only mode of transportation allowed in the mountain Park
is by foot, horseback or bicycle. 

Motorized vehicles are not allowed in the park.
