Big Hill Springs Provincial Park is a provincial park in the foothills of Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, about 40 kilometres (20 mi) northwest of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. It features a series of springs and small waterfalls that flow year-round over rocky terraces covered with a lush growth of mosses, shrubs, and grasses. The park also includes the ruins of an historic fish hatchery and Alberta’s first commercial creamery. The main activities at the park are hiking, picnicking, scenic viewing, wildlife watching, and photography.
