Mount Kidd Campground

Mount Kidd Campground Kananaskis Country.

Mount Kidd campground is located approximately 115km, 1.25 hours South West of Calgary in Evan Thomas Provincial Recreation Area Kananaskis country. There are 229 large, well treed campsites that can be reserved, see official link below. The campground fills fast on weekends due to it's close proximity to the City of Calgary. This campground offers both summer and winter camping for both tents and larger RV's, amphitheatre, tennis courts, wading pool, small store, propane sales, pay telephone, showers, water hookups, power hookups, picnic tables, fire pits, flush toilets, water, sani dump, paved bike paths and interpretive hiking trails. Dry firewood is available here for a fee. This is Bear country, food and food related items must be stored properly. There are several trails located in the area along with a paved bike path. Kananaskis Village, Kananaskis Golf Course and Nakiska Ski Resort are located a few minutes North of the Mount Kidd campground. If you travel another 30km South you will reach the Peter Lougheed Provincial Park and the Upper and Lower Kananaskis Lakes. Friends of ours stayed here on Halloween one year and found the local campers we're trick or treating (handing out candy to children dressed in Halloween costumes). I noticed a lot of large motor home campers that were enjoying the nearby Golf Course. If you're a golfer I'm sure you will enjoy this campground and it's location.
