Sheep Creek Prov. Rec. Area Camp

Sheep Creek Provincial Recreation Area Campground sits on the bank of the Smoky River, about 25 km north of Grande Cache along Highway 40.

The small campground offers six unserviced, open sites on gravel pads, most positioned directly along the river at roughly 900 m elevation.

Amenities include firepits, pit/vault toilets, a hand-pump water source (not safe for drinking—suitable for fire suppression only), and a boat launch providing direct access to the Smoky River.

Activities in the area include fishing, informal hiking trails, and canoeing, kayaking, or power boating on the river. The access road is not maintained in winter.
