Due to dry conditions, Chain Lakes Provincial Park only has communal firepits in the campground. Propane and gas cooking equipment is permitted, and charcoal briquette barbeques are allowed when there are no fire bans in place. Propane fire pits are not permitted.
Set against the rolling foothills at the base of the Rocky Mountains, Chain Lakes Provincial Park offers a peaceful escape in Southern Alberta. The unique landscape of the area creates a blend of ecological zones that attract wildlife year-round. Spend your days fishing for trout, paddling across calm waters, or spotting pelicans, trumpeter swans, and birds of prey. The surrounding lands and communities are rich in history and offer many opportunities for all interests. As night falls, look up! Chain Lakes boasts some of Alberta’s darkest skies (Bortle scale ~2), offering excellent conditions for stargazing and night photography.
Note: Chain Lakes Provincial Park is located along Highway 22, in southern Alberta, where as Chain Lakes Provincial Recreation Area is located near Athabasca in northern Alberta.
