About this campsite

Pyramid Campground is situated along the Wells Gray Parkway near the Murtle River crossing, central to Wells Gray's famous waterfall corridor.

Offering 50 unserviced campsites amidst towering interior rainforest, it sits just minutes from the thunderous 141-meter drop of Helmcken Falls and Dawson Falls.

A peaceful rustic basecamp operating on a first-come, first-served basis, popular with waterfall hunters, hikers, and overlanders.

What makes it worth the drive

Super close to Helmcken Falls! Quiet campground with huge trees and easy access to all the park's main waterfalls.
