Established in 1886, Yoho National Park is one of
41 national parks in Canada. Our nation's parks celebrate and help protect
the diversity of Canada's landscapes and the life within. Yoho represents
the western slopes of the Rocky Mountains region, and is also a Cree expression
of awe and wonder for this place of rock walls, spectacular waterfalls and
soaring peaks. In the shadow of the Great Divide, Yoho holds the secrets of
ancient ocean life, the power of ice and water, and unique plant and animal
communities that continue to evolve today.
