Directions
A Kananaskis Conservation Pass is required to park your vehicle in Kananaskis and the Bow Valley.

Gooseberry Campground is in Gooseberry Provincial Recreation Area, 10 km west of Bragg Creek along Hwy. 66. There are over 80 sites in a aspen/pine forest near the Elbow River. The recent addition of power sites improves the location for RVs, while keeping the charm of the few walk-in tent sites. From this area you can fish and hike, or explore other opportunities nearby.
