Provincial Campgrounds

Pyramid Campground

Pyramid Campground is located 42km from the Wells Gray Information Centre. Just past the Mushbowl bridge and about 1km from the Helmcken Falls turn off. It has 32 campsites within the  campground, and is a great base for exploring Dawson Falls and the Pyramid Mountain area. It has basic facilities such as a hand pump for water, pit toilets, picnic tables and fire rings.

Registration for camping takes place in the evenings. The cost is $20 per night, with firewood offered at $7. Even though it is located perfectly within the park, and sighting of wildlife such as deer and bears grazing along the campground road are common, there’s almost always space available at Pyramid Campground!
