Nice and quiet lot. trail nearby, but somewhat confusing map!
Superbe endroit pour y passer la nuit. On entend les voitures mais le traffic diminue la nuit. Piste de randonnée tout près.

Large parking lot. Very quiet, even with the road close. All you see is trees.

Slept like a baby! It’s not visible from the highway, it was nice and dark, and I was surprised I didn’t notice the highway sounds at all. One vehicle was there when I arrived, two came after, and there was space for all of us to park with a lot of distance between us. Definitely staying there again in the future!

Quiet trail head car park. Not very flat so pick your spot carefully. Felt safe. Not many other parking spots in the area.

Nice open parking lot with lovely trails nearby that are nice to walk on. The freeway is near but there wasn’t a lot of traffic noise at night.

perfect place for one night, we can hear the road but I don't care, it's free.

Decent sized sand parking lot with enough space for several large rigs. Bumpy road for like 50 metres to get in. On garbage, no bathrooms and a nice trial that goes for up to 10km.

Stayed here one night. Was undisturbed. Nice quit location surrounded by trees. Narrow lane with potholes leading in.

Big parking space. We saw a few locals coming for a walk. You can hear the road a little. We were accompanied by two young deers while having supper.

Perfect for staying at night. There is a lot of space plus it’s really calm. Your circled by trees and just beside the road so it’s perfect.

Great overnight spot with a very nice hike option. Large enough to turn around (38’ motorhome with toad) easily. Very rough, but short, road going in. Would stay again.

We parked for 2 night in the parking area, you can hear a car go by every now and then but overall it’s pretty calm. We were the only ones here. In the Morning there were some locals walking their dogs but no one bothered. Would recommend this location.

Nous y sommes restés une nuit, assez calme, réseau cellulaire faible, attention l'hiver le chemin est très accidenté!
Belles pistes de randonnée à quelques mètres près!

Spent a night here. It was a pretty good spot and far enough away from the city center that it felt safe for the night. About 4 others camped here as well. Really loud couple at night arguing that came out of no where (not campers), but they left quick. The walk was nice the next morning.

Some traffic noise but the privacy is appreciated. Only one other camper on the spot.

Stayed here for a night, wasn't sure as we were here early and parking lot was pretty full. a gentleman came up and told us the parking lot in the back was bigger and should be plenty of room. we drove in to the back parking and it was good. I biked the trails and enjoyed the day. Was a peaceful night along with 4 other overnighers.

Une belle place très tranquille ! Quand vous arrivez par le Manitoba le chemin n’est pas très visible surtout la nuit. C’est à gauche. Roulez doucement pour ne pas le manquer. La police est venue faire un tour ce matin et n’a rien dit ou fait pour nous. Large stationnement facile à se retourner même pour nous avec une roulotte.

June 27th, 2021 by martinbertrand2

Nous avons très bien dormi dans ce stationnement. Deux autres overlanders étaient aussi là. il y a des marcheurs durant la journée mais ça tombe tranquille le soir venu.

Spent a quiet night in this gravel parking lot.

This spot felt the safest to me for some reason. You might see fireflies at night which is magical. The hike is not bad to do before you hit the road.

Great spot. Well maintained during the winter. No Telus signal.

November 24th, 2020 by tangledtreesarb

Great spot. Quiet. Trails right there, walked the dogs in the morning. Please be respectful and clean up after yourself when stopping here. There are no other spots in the area to stay.

Beautiful soot for overnight!
Dog friendly and if you love easy trail biking its your spot!

Big parking lot with fairly flat area near the back. There is some highway noise.

August 28th, 2020 by HanTheHam

Small trailhead just off the road. Fairly quiet, only a few other campers. Lots of space at the back for tents!

August 13th, 2020 by onestou

great place, quiet name, few vans, even big rigs can fit.

August 3rd, 2020 by martinbertrand2

Trail head parking. 100m of unpaved road and you find a big isolated free public parking. No signage whatsoever. 5 km trail is a plus. Garbage bin available.
