Nature
Sundance Provincial Park in western Alberta, about 100 kilometers east of Jasper National Park, consists of two separate sections with different landscapes and purposes. One area includes the five Emerson lakes and extends to the Athabasca River, offering camping, fishing, and trails around the lakes. The larger section protects hoodoos eroded from sandstone cliffs in the foothill valley around Sundance Creek and Sundance Lake, and includes the Wild Sculpture Trail. Together the park's sections cover 37 square kilometers, with a surrounding 42 square kilometer Special Management Zone. Its importance lies in pairing outdoor recreation with protection of a distinctive erosion-shaped landscape.
