Aylmer Group Campground

riverside camping

Scenic campground on the shore of the North Saskatchewan River.

This remote campground is accessible by both road and river and is often used as a staging area for hiking, mountain biking and equestrian trails in the area.

The group site is located across the road from the boat launch, which is used by canoe, kayak and river boat enthusiasts to access the North Saskatchewan River. A canoeing trip down the river to Rocky Mountain House is usually done in 3 days.

We all have our part to do to keep this place special. Planning ahead is key to ensuring that we all continue to enjoy adventures in the Nordegg & Abraham Lake region. These are a few of the things you can do to help:

Minimize your impact by using existing sites, fire rings and toilets instead of creating your own.
Know about current fire bans, make sure that your fire is completely out before you go and buy firewood instead of cutting down trees. Remember that shooting fireworks is not allowed in the region.
Keep your site clean and your food stored inside your vehicle to help keep our wildlife wild. Always use bear-proof garbage bins.
While alcohol is now permitted in some Alberta Parks day-use areas, none of those are in our region. Alcohol is only allowed at registered campsites.
Be mindful of your neighbours and other visitors, including keeping noise to a minimum.
Be prepared for adventures in a remote area. Explore within your skills to reduce the strain on our volunteer search and rescue team.
Remember that cell service is limited. We recommend carrying a satellite communicator, like a Zoleo, on your adventures.
Support local businesses and communities in Cline River, the Bighorn and Nordegg.
