Waterton Lakes National Park Townsite Campground
Established Campground
This established campground sits right in Waterton townsite, surrounded by the dramatic peaks of the Canadian Rockies. The 238 sites range from basic tent spots to full hookups, all within walking distance of restaurants, the visitor center, and Waterton Lake. Sites fill fast in summer — the mountain scenery and convenience make this a prime base camp.
Open May through October, weather permitting. Reservations essential for summer visits. The campground gets busy with RVs and families, but the alpine setting and easy trail access to Cameron Falls and Red Rock Canyon make up for the crowds.
