Mount Kerkeslin Campground Jasper National Park.

The Mount Kerkeslin Campground is located in the Rocky Mountains near the bank of the Athabasca River on the Icefields Parkway 36km south of the Jasper townsite. The campsite is set nicely in a mature Spruce and Fir tree forest with both walk-in and drive to campsites. There are 42 un-serviced sites with picnic tables and fire pits, fire wood is available when purchasing a fire permit. This campground is better suited towards tents and very small RV's. The campground has a public pay phone, potable water that is hauled in, dry toilets, sheltered camp kitchen with a wood burning cook stove, garbage bins and food storage. This is Bear country, food and food related items must be stored properly. Views of Mount Fryatt to the south are beautiful. There is a nice Sandy area here on the bank of the Athabasca River that makes for a great place to set up your lawn chair however keep an eye on younger children as the river runs fast and deep. Miette Hot Springs Pool, Sulphur Skyline Hike, Opal Hills Hike, Bald Hills Hike, Mount Edith Cavell Hike, Whistlers Mountain Hike, Maligne Canyon Hike, Horse Shoe Lake Hike and Athabasca Falls Hike are also located in the Jasper area.
