The '''Palliser Range''' is a [[mountain range]] of the [[Canadian Rockies]] that lies in the extreme southeast corner of [[Banff National Park]], [[Alberta]], [[Canada]].

The Palliser Range is part of the East Banff Ranges of the Central Front [[Canadian Rockies]].<ref name=peakbagger>{{cite peakbagger|rid=141291|name=Palliser Range|access-date=2019-09-18}}</ref>

[[Lake Minnewanka]] marks the southern boundary of the range while the [[Bare Range]] marks the northern boundary. Its eastern reaches are marked by the [[Black Rock Mountain (Alberta)|Black Rock Mountain]] of the Ghost River Area. The range was named by the [[Palliser expedition]] as it appears on one of the maps produced by the expedition. The range gives the name to the [[Palliser Formation]], a stratigraphical unit prominently featured in the mountains of this range.
