Alberta Provincial Highway No. 627, commonly referred to as Highway 627, runs west to east through rural parts of Parkland County, beginning at Highway 759 about 12 km (7.5 mi) south of Seba Beach and heads due east. The Parkland County portion is also known as Garden Valley Road. It takes the name Maskêkosihk Trail (/mʌsˈkeɪɡoʊsiː/) as it enters Edmonton at 215 Street/Winterburn Road, before terminating at Anthony Henday Drive. Portions of 23 Avenue and 184 Street NW between Winterburn Road and Anthony Henday Drive were renamed Maskêkosihk Trail in February 2016 to honour Cree heritage.
