Overview
A brief introduction to Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park
Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park is located about 100 kilometres (60 mi) southeast of Lethbridge, Alberta, Canada, or 44 kilometres (30 mi) east of the community of Milk River, and straddles the Milk River itself. It is one of the largest areas of protected prairie in the Alberta park system, and serves as both a nature preserve and protection for many First Nations (indigenous) rock carvings and paintings. The park is sacred to the Blackfoot and many other aboriginal tribes.
On July 6, 2019, Writing-on-Stone / Áísínai’pi was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its UNESCO application was filed under the name Áísínaiʼpi / ᖰᓱᖸᑯ, a Blackfoot language word meaning 'it is pictured' (or 'written'). The provincial park is synonymous with the Áísínaiʼpi National Historic Site.
