Something not right?

Description

RV camping self registration $16.75 unserviced. Huge parking lot, not leveled. Park ranger came by around 8:30pm to check self registration and for national parks passes.

It's one of the highest points in the park, so can be cold. But with view to the glacier very nice.

At the visitercenter is fast internet.

Great cell service signal too (only in summer!).

Next dumping station in Jasper.

17 CAD for a parking lot used as an RV “campground”. No tables, no fire pits. Went to Wilcox campground and had an awesome evening at the fire pit (wood is available for free).

Great spot for a night. At the foot of the glacie, we were prepared for a cold night, but not cold at all. Paid checking in starts May 17th, so we stayed for free. With maybe 25 other rv’s. Not level, so levelling blocks needed

Parkplatz für RVs. Nicht sehr gerade, aber der Blick auf den Gletscher entschädigt für alles. Mai 2022 kaum RVs am Platz (16,75 CND/Nacht, Self-Registration). Plätze direkt an der Straße haben den besten Blick auf den Gletscher. Die Straße ist kaum befahren. Pit Toilets sind sehr sauber. Columbia Icefield Center ist fußläufig gut zu erreichen. Dort gibt es Starbucks, ein Restaurant, Toiletten und Wlan. Direkt gegenüber vom Parkplatz gibt es zwei Wanderwege zum Gletscher.

Park ranger came by around 8:30pm to check self registration and for national parks passes. Great views. We arrived to the Icefield center around 5pm, signed up for the 6pm Skywalk tour and arrived back by 7:45pm. This was a great time to go, it was the last tour of the day so it was not as busy. The Icefield center also has a couple restaurants, Starbucks and a gift shop.

Amazing view in a handy spot.
$16.05 for the night, self registration.
Toilets near by, and a Starbucks in the nearby ice field centre which was nice in the morning.
We camped there that night so that we could go on the morning tour of the glacier and sky walk, which were both well worth doing.

Report Check-In

Yes, you must pay $16.01 per night to park here. The park ranger was collecting money from the self-registration kiosk as we arrived. C'mon - pay the fee. It's worth it to visit this spectacular place.

Report Check-In

Definitely not for free, normal 16.05 Cad with self registration, rangers came by and checked an 9pm. Nice view though and with the overflow camping at snaring river the only site where you dont have to pay the 9 cad fire permit that is mandatory since 2021.

Just a parking lot but excellent views of the glacier, which is in walking distance. Now it's free too.

Totally wonderful , if you’re self sufficient .
The view is just amazing , we went for a walk on the glacier just in front of the spot

free spot for one night, because no one cares about the self registration (maybe because of covid). nice view at the glacier, but can be a little bit chilly. just a parking lot with some camping tables and pit toilets

Just a parking lot but great view of the glacier. Night was quiet and cold. It’s 15,70$ self registration, just put the money in an envelope or leave your credit card details. There is free wifi and a filtered water machine at the visitor center just next to it.

Amazing spot. Thanks for Parks Canada for making this available. We paid at the Parks Canada desk since the self pay kiosk was out of envelopes. Get up and hit the glacier early. It can get crowded.

Parking field, Self-Registration but there is no price written. So we asked other people and they said that they not are going to pay anything. I guess noboady paied. For us it worked well.

It's one of the highest points in the park, so can be cold. But with view to the glacier very nice.
