The Whoop-Up Trail, also known as the Macleod-Benton Trail was a wagon road that connected Fort Benton, Montana Territory, United States, to Fort Hamilton, North-West Territories, Canada. The trail was initially a trade route between the Montana Territory and the region that later became southern Alberta, which was then part of Rupert's Land and controlled by the Hudson's Bay Company.
