This Alberta park has a waterfall & crystal clear river where you can swim in the summer

When you’re in Wild Rose Country, you don’t have to travel far to find a scenic boardwalk, a stunning river, or a rushing waterfall, but some are more spectacular than others.

Located south of Calgary, Alberta, Castle Falls Campground in Castle Provincial Park is a sight to behold, with towering trees, and crystal-clear water where you can swim in the summertime.

Whether you want to take photos or seek an adventure, this beautiful destination makes for a great day trip and a memorable staycation for those looking to stay the night.

Want to stay for the long haul?

If you do hit pitch a tent, don’t forget to bring your own water and firewood, as they do not provide any at the park.

In lieu of this, they provide a serene place to spend a weekend, which we think kind of makes up for it.

From hiking and bird watching to dipping your toes this unique spot is a dream, but be warned – the water is pretty cold!

There are few places that are better for beating the heat this summer!
