Aspen Beach is evolving with nature! Gull Lake has a long history of being strongly influenced by fluctuating water levels due to rainfall and snowmelt. Currently, lake levels are very shallow along the park shorelines.
Due to this change, Ebeling Beach is moving towards a more naturalized landscape to support local ecosystems. You'll find that only pathways to the water will remain groomed, ensuring clear routes for accessing the lake for water recreation. The rest of Ebeling Beach will be left to its natural state.
We appreciate your understanding and support as we navigate these changes.
Effective Date: May 16, 2025
Where: Ebeling Beach Boat Launch, Brewers Campground Boat Launch and Lakeview Campground Boat Launch
Why: Please be advised that all three boat launches at Aspen Beach Provincial Park are closed for the 2025 operating season. This necessary measure is due to critically low water levels in Gull Lake, which pose a significant safety risk to boaters and could cause damage to watercraft. Please respect all closures and obey all signage posted on site. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in ensuring the safety of all park visitors.
Alberta Parks is actively monitoring the water levels and will reassess the situation as conditions change. We apologize for any inconveniences this may cause to your experience.
Ebeling Day Use Area will be opening to the public on Friday May 16th, 2025. Flush washrooms & the Concession are closed until the construction on the water and wastewater systems is complete. Vault Toilets and Porta Potties will be available for the publics use.
Aspen Beach Provincial Park's camping season is delayed until June 26, 2025. This year, the closure has been scheduled to allow for construction upgrades to the water and wastewater systems that were unable to occur during the winter months. We recognize that the public would appreciate having access to these locations for spring camping opportunities. Unfortunately, this is not possible to allow for heavy equipment and construction activities to be concluded in advance of the operating season. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Visitors must stay out of the following locations until the Park opens for the 2025 camping season:
Spring camping opportunities can be found at Jarvis Bay Provincial Park , Red Lodge Provincial Park , Pigeon Lake Provincial Park and Crimson Lake Provincial Park. We look forward to welcoming you back to Aspen Beach in the 2025 summer season!
