Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park

Writing-on-Stone Provincial Park offers an unforgettable camping experience set within one of the most visually striking landscapes in Alberta. This unique site is defined by its dramatic sandstone cliffs and the iconic hoodoos that rise from the prairie landscape along the Milk River. As a year-round destination, the park provides a rugged and scenic backdrop for those looking to immerse themselves in the natural beauty of the Canadian badlands.

The campground is primarily designed to accommodate tent and car camping enthusiasts who appreciate a more traditional outdoor experience.

The open terrain and expansive skies make it a peaceful retreat for families and individuals alike who want to disconnect and explore the unique geological formations of the region.

Located approximately 16.8 miles from the nearest city of Sunburst, the park serves as a remote sanctuary for visitors. Whether you are a beginner looking for a quiet place to set up a tent or a traveler passing through Western Canada, the park provides a rare opportunity to camp amidst a landscape steeped in history and natural wonder.
