Details:

Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park Campground and group use areas will be closed for a septic system replacement from September 8 to October 29, 2026.

The day use area in the valley will remain open, but the access road will be closed to both vehicle and foot traffic. Visitors will be able to park at the Visitor Centre and walk down through the Hoodoos along Visitor Centre trail.

Follow the direction of all signage and personnel in the area and stay out of active construction zones.

Group Use A is located in the valley just off the main road into the campground. Nestled beneath the Hoodoos, which provide good protection from the wind, this Group Use Area is separated from the main campground by the Day Use Area, providing more privacy for visitors.

The site has a parking lot for mid-sized RV's, trailers and tent trailers. The main gathering area near the camp kitchen is located a short walk from the parking lot and has a group fire ring, numerous picnic tables, a private vault toilet, a potable water tap, and a camp kitchen with a wood burning stove and electrical outlets. There is additional space for tents located closer to the camp kitchen. Group Use A is adjacent to the main hiking trail with an easy dedicate access point. 

Note: There are no power hook-ups for RV's. If power is required, you may wish to consider booking a powered site in the Campground, or bringing a generator (please note generators may have restricted run times).
