About this campsite
Boulton Creek is one of the premier frontcountry campgrounds in Kananaskis Country. Nestled among high-elevation lodgepole pine and spruce forests, it offers serviced RV sites alongside unserviced loops.
Campers enjoy modern amenities including hot showers, flush toilets, a sani-dump station, and the famous Boulton Creek Trading Post for soft-serve ice cream, camping gear, and groceries.
Paved interpretive trails connect directly to Upper Kananaskis Lake and Boulton Creek, making it an ideal family basecamp for hiking, mountain biking, and canoeing.

Great paved sites with high trees providing nice privacy. The store is fantastic and hot showers were super clean.
