Rampart Creek Campground — Hotel in Alberta

We stayed here for 3 nights between our visits to Banff and Jasper to give us ample time to explore the sights along the Icefield Parkway. Located just 20 minutes south of the Icefield Centre was an ideal location. Plus the park was quiet and peaceful in a setting enough distance from the road to not hear the traffic and was along the Mistaya River. Only a couple of sites are suitable for larger rigs like ours. We were in site 12 which could accommodate our 35' fifth wheel easily. While larger rigs would fit as well, turning around would be a bit more of a problem. There are many sites right along the river that would work for tents and smaller rigs. There are no services - we dry camped.

The first area on the right are fcfs sites you can park in but the other fcfs sites closer to the river are walk in only. We drove around a long one way road twice before we saw the sign.

The outhouse was...

Without any doubt, the worst campsite I’ve stayed at. The one we got was literally right next to outhouses (site #9). Like absolutely no separation. So not only there’s no privacy, the amount of noise is just insane. Good luck going to sleep early or waking up late.

But wait, there’s more! There’s basically no usable firewood. Few logs that are there are wet. People who stayed here a night before said that barely any is being brought, nowhere near enough to give everyone a chance to have a campfire. The campsite was full btw. People have to go to a gas station nearby to buy firewood, after already supposedly paying for it as part of the reservation fee (which explicitly includes...
