This slideshow provides a feel for the unique kind of hiking and riding adventures that Willmore Wilderness Park offers. Willmore is north of Jasper National Park. It's a front range of the continental divide. It's a gentle wilderness (a term coined by John Muir). That is, most of the ridges and basins and some of the peaks can be climbed without technical gear and hiking cross-country, without trails, if feasible in many areas. We generally use horse-assisted hiking – outfitter's horses carry our camp gear and we hike with day packs. The horses generally follow the valley bottoms when moving through Willmore while the hikers generally hike off-trail into basins and along ridges.
