Crescent Falls Campground Provincial Park Recreation Area.

Crescent Falls Campground is located 110km West of Rocky Mountain House. Approximately 4 hours Southwest of the city of Edmonton and 3.5 hours Northwest of the city of Calgary. There are a total of 29 campsites with picnic tables and fire pits. Although the campground is not that remote it does have a very remote feel to it. There are 5 or six walk-in tent sites located next to the Big Horn River. All of the camp sites are surrounded by Spruce tress that provide good privacy. This campground has a hand water pump, dry toilets, fire wood, equestrian area, corrals, loading ramp, and community kitchen. There is also a very nice day use area and equestrian campground with all the necessary amenities for horses. The campground is located very close to the Crescent Falls view point. There are a few nice hiking trails that run along the top of the Big Horn Valley. You'll see spectacular views of the double tiered Crescent Falls and the Big Horn Canyon. The falls are very popular during the summer months. Night skies here rank #1 on the Bortle Scale. The well maintained gravel road leading to the campground is approximately 6km long and very dusty. Check the official campground web site link below before you go. Each year the road near the campground tends to wash out in the early spring. There are several hiking trails located in this area. To mention a few, Siffleur Falls, Crescent Falls, Hoodoo Creek, Kinglet Lake, Two O'clock Ridge, Vision Quest, Windy Point Ridge, Allstones Creek, Allstones Lake, Ice Falls Loop, Coral Creek, Coral Ridge, Big Whirlpool, Cline and Coral Canyons are all located near here. This is Bear country, food and food related items must be stored properly.
