Whitehorse Wildland Provincial Park

Alberta Parks

Cadomin Cave in Whitehorse Wildland Provincial Park is closed to the public to lessen the risk of white-nose syndrome, a deadly fungal disease, spreading to bats in Alberta. All cave-roosting bats across North America may be at risk. The fungus is not harmful to humans but is believed to be spread by humans when they explore caves. Read more here.
