Chief Mountain Port Closes for Season

Canada Border Services Agency

The Chief Mountain port of entry is closing for the season on September 30, at 6:00 p.m. Mountain Standard Time (MST). It will reopen in the spring of 2025.

Due to its high elevation and harsh winters, Chief Mountain only operates from May to September.

Travellers can use the Carway port of entry, Del Bonita port of entry or Coutts port of entry as an alternative during the seasonal closure.

Chief Mountain is located along Alberta's Highway 6 on the boundary of Waterton Lakes National Park. At 1,722 meters, it has the highest elevation of all border crossings in Canada and has long been considered one of Canada's most scenic ports of entry.
