Getting there
Mount Assiniboine Provincial Park is a remote hiking destination that is not accessible by car, making it difficult for hikers to explore the area’s many pristine trails. To get into the park, you will need to backpack in from the Mount Shark or Sunshine Village trailheads. Alternatively, you can pay to take a scenic helicopter ride to save time and skip the extra hiking distance.
