Waterton Glacier International Peace Park was declared a World Heritage Site by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). These two national parks were designated by law the world's first International Peace Park in 1932. Located on the Alberta/Montana border and offering outstanding scenery, the parks are exceptionally rich in plant and mammal species as well as in alpine and glacial features.
