Highwood River
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Highwood River is a river located in southwestern Alberta, Canada.
It originates in the Canadian Rockies, in Peter Lougheed Provincial Park, then flows south along the Kananaskis Trail between Elbow-Sheep Wildland, Don Getty Wildland and Emerson Creek Park. It turns east and flows along highway 541 and through the community of Longview. Continuing east, it passes through High River, ending when it enters the Bow River southeast of Calgary.
The Sheep River merges into the Highwood River east of Okotoks.
The Eden Valley 216 indian reserve of the Bearspaw, Chiniki and Wesley First Nations is established along the river.
