The Sheep Valley

Information provided courtesy of Kananaskis Country

When you arrive,
listen for it: the river, it defines this valley. A torrent that blasts through vertical layers of rock to meander more leisurely downstream. The Sheep is a contrast of commanding peaks and pastoral meadows, of deep gorges, and sweeping valleys.

The valley comes by its name honestly. The native people that visited here also called
it the Sheep and a drive through the wildlife sanctuary here will show you why. It’s a rare day when you won’t see bighorn sheep grazing in the meadows, on the surrounding slopes, or scrambling nimble-footed on the rocky outcrops.

For most the tranquillity of this valley brings them to the Sheep – a chance to get into the
saddle, be it on horse back or mountain bike, to ride the hundreds of kilometres of trails that join with the Elbow and Highwood Valleys.
