Mount Arethusa is a mountain located in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta, Canada.
It is located alongside Highway 40, immediately east of the Highwood Pass parking lot in Kananaskis Country, and is a part of the Misty Range of the Southern Continental Ranges. It is named after HMS Arethusa, a British cruiser sunk in the 1915 Battle of Dogger Bank.[5][6]
Mt. Arethusa and Little Arethusa form the southern wall of the Ptarmigan cirque which is a popular short hike from the Highwood Pass parking lot.
