Little Big Mountains - Mt Robson

Mount Robson Park has more than 3000m of elevation change. It rises from the valley of the Fraser River (at approximately 800m) to the summit of Mount Robson (3954m). The first known European mountaineers to summit Mount Robson were Conrad Kain, W.W. Foster, and A.H. McCarthy, in 1913. 

Mount Robson Park is the second oldest provincial park in British Columbia. This popular park offers everything from vehicle-accessible camping to remote, rarely visited valleys.

Mount Robson itself guards the park’s western entrance. At 3,954m, it is the highest peak in the Canadian Rockies, towering over the surrounding peaks. Winter or summer, this is one of the finest views in the Rocky Mountains.

Mount Robson Park and seven other connected parks make up one of the world’s largest protected areas. Part of the Canadian Rocky Mountains World Heritage Site, Mount Robson Park protects the headwaters of the Fraser River.
