Honeymoon Lake Campground

Honeymoon Lake Campground is a 35-site frontcountry campground beside a mountain lake on the Icefields Parkway, 183 km from Lake Louise and 50 km from Jasper. It suits a simple overnight stop for a lakeside setting and reflected peaks, rather than a full-service base. Keep a backup campground in mind if the first-come sites are full.

Sites are first come, first served, and the campground is seasonal. Demand across Jasper campgrounds is heaviest from June through September, especially July and August, so don’t make this your only plan in peak summer. Check that season’s opening dates before you set out.

The setup is primitive, with fire pits, and is best suited to tents and motorhomes or trailers under 8.2 m (27 ft). Potable water and pit toilets are available; picnic tables or cooking shelters are less consistently documented, so check current facilities if you depend on one. Bring food to cook at camp rather than expecting a meal stop. You need a camping permit and park entry pass, and stays are limited to 14 nights.

Shared site #24 is reserved for bicycle campers and can hold up to six tents. It’s a group site, not a regular individual tent spot. The tradeoff for everyone else is a compact campground: some sites feel close together, and the Parkway is nearby.
