RV camping near Lake Louise

With its turquoise waters and towering mountain backdrop, Lake Louise delivers the perfect Alberta RV camping trip. Many RV parks in the area offer full hookups for electricity and water, with easily accessible dump stations for waste disposal. Common amenities include picnic tables, firepits, and clean restrooms with flush toilets. After setting up, take a short drive north to tour Athabasca Glacier, or visit Banff National Park and Kananaskis Country to the south. Traversing through mountain passes with travel trailers and big rigs can be challenging during snowy winter months, but after the snow begins to melt in late spring, RV camping around Lake Louise becomes more accessible. The remarkable waterfalls and densely forested areas begin to open up for hiking, fishing, and wildlife viewing too. Look out for bighorn sheep, elk, moose, marmots, and grizzly bears—especially on the animal crossings on the main Bow Valley Parkway.
