Protection Mountain Campground is located 15 km east of Lake Louise on the scenic Bow Valley Parkway (Hwy 1A). This open campground offers impressive views of both Protection and Castle Mountains and is an excellent location for evening star gazing. Campsites are unserviced and best suited for tents, or motorhomes and trailers up to 10 meters (35 feet). RV campers may use the sani-dump located at Lake Louise Campground. There is limited cell coverage at the Protection Mountain site and on the Bow Valley Parkway.
CampFinder checks Parks Canada every 30 minutes, around the clock, and emails you when a booked-up night opens back up. That catches most cancellations, which sit open for hours; at the few campgrounds that refill in seconds it can miss the race. Set up a free availability alert for Lake Louise - Protection Mountain.
