This section of ATV riding trails is found literally on the western Alberta border side up towards British Columbia. These quadding trails are easy to find in the southern most pocket of the Livingstone PLUZ. This section is just off of Hwy 3/Crowsnest Hwy on the south side across from the Island Lake Recreation Area. There are staging areas on Tent Mountain Road.
Because this is a Public Land Use Zone, random camping and other such activities are allowed here.
There are only a few riding trails in this portion of the Livingstone, but these trails are quite fun to ride.
Featuring waterfalls, mountain scenery, vast forest and wildlife, as well as gigantic puddles on the trails and even some steep but not difficult downhill sections.
Some puddles were huge, but still passable. Expect to get wet if not in an enclosed unit. Even then, it was coming up through the doors onto the floor!
Staging area for Island Lake area of the Livingstone PLUZ. Here is where you offload your machines as Tent Mountain Road is open to registered and insured OHV vehicles. Found just south off of HWY 3 on Tent Mountain Road.
Grab yourself a map at one of the many information boards throughout the Livingstone PLUZ. You will find limited cell service in many areas in the Livingstone Range, so be prepared and know where you are going.
Backcountry camping is a welcomed experience when visiting the Crowsnest Pass and the Livingstone PLUZ. Many pockets of the Livingstone reach through the Crowsnest and there are some wonderful areas to camp in the wild for up to 14 days at a time.
There are various offshoots and trails throughout the Livingstone Public Land Use Zone in the southern most pocket south of Hwy 3. I actually didn't realize the Livingstone Zone reached south of the HWY. It was a fun area to ride and explore.
The south side of the Livingstone PLUZ has some fun trails I would call family friendly. Not overly technical, just some really really big puddles on the trails and some fun climbs and down hill rides. Would be a good area for kids to ride their...

Spring is a beautiful time to explore Southern Alberta Canada as the snow melts. The mountains have that "postcard look" with the snow caps surrounded by green forests
The access for the OHV Trail area in the south Livingstone range is only large enough for non highway vehicles. We're 68" wide and had no problem passing through.
A fun place to ride with the family and bring a picnic lunch for one of the many spots with a view. You can easily spend the day and knock off all the trails in this southern pocket in thr Livingstone PLUZ.
There are constantly changes to the trails available. So it is always best to grab a fresh updated copy of the PLUZs in Alberta. The arrow shows the area we explored around Island in southern Alberta
