Castle Falls Campground

Castle Falls Campground is about 42 km (26 mi) southwest of Pincher Creek. It’s the ideal base for exploring Castle Falls Provincial Park and nearby attractions like the Frank Slide Interpretive Centre.

The 45 unserviced sites include some that sit right on the banks of the Castle River. All sites are surrounded by open, mixed forest so campers get a little privacy. They also have easy access to the river, which has many nice swimming holes and good fishing. There are pit toilets and a water pump, but you must bring your drinking water. Firewood is not available on-site.

Castle Falls Provincial Park also offers good birdwatching and backcountry camping opportunities. Trails that wind through the wilderness are great for hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding.

The campground is open from May to September. Reservations are required.
