Latest Check-Ins
Easy in, easy out right off the Hwy. Good gravel road w/dirt & grass primitive sites between the trees and some are water front. There are lots of fire rings throughout, and a couple pit toilets scattered around. Views for days! Free with the Alberta camping pass for $30/year secured easily online (beforehand). Zero cell service here. No water or trash, no tables, no luxuries except the sheer beauty of the surrounding mountains and the river. There are a few mosquitoes (not bad) and biting flies here, but nothing to keep you from enjoying the outside. Lots of walking can be done here after a long day of sitting and driving. We would come again.
Report Check-InSuperb spot - one of my favourites of this road trip. Loads of room, scenic splendor, flat, plenty of fire rings, coyotes howling in the morning and clean bathrooms. Only 3 other RVs/campers but lots of distance/privacy between us all. 10 out of 10.

spectacular freebie spot. lots of trailers look to be camping here for a few days, canoes and SUP's on the lake. no phone service, but the most beautiful boondock I've done yet. there's lots more of free spots in the area along this road.
Report Check-InFree campsite open to the public. Lots of camping spots available, lots of people doing whatever they want without any rules. A little bit noisy at the entrance. Despite that we found the place pleasant. We found ourselves a quite spot on a side. We stayed one night in our way to Edmonton.
No dumpster. No cellphone signal.
Wow! Un immense terrain de camping gratuit! Avec 2 toilettes. Nous étions une trentaine et il restait encore beaucoup de place. VR, tentes, roulottes… de la place
pour pour tout le monde!
Très bon spot, la vue est incroyable. Peu de monde fin mai. La source d’eau est la rivière qui longe le camping. Toilettes à l’entrée.
Report Check-InOSM gives name as Preacher's Point. Lots of sites, by the water and sheltered in the trees. Great views across the water. Access with 22' van no problem, several larger rigs here. Couple sites near the water were muddy.
Report Check-InThis was a great spot close to the East entrance to Banff National Park. At the end of April there were only 3 or 4 campers but I can see how it would be very busy in the summer. Outhouses and lots of firepits. The view was fabulous. There was absolutely no cell service here or in Banff National Park along Hwy 93 between Lake Louise and Jasper, so at least a two hour drive either North or South of this location. Before you lose service, make the contacts you need to make.
Report Check-InBeautiful, spacious unmanaged recreation site, lots of level camping by beautiful Abraham Lake.
Report Check-Inamazing spot. very busy but definitely felt safe. lots of fire pits around and washrooms available. get there early to get a spot along the water.
