About
Minutes away from the Jasper townsite, Wapiti Campground can accommodate most sizes of motorhomes and trailers. Electrical campsites only are equipped with 15, 30, and 50 amp service. Shower use is included in the campsite fee. Due to the 2024 Jasper Wildfire, Wapiti Campground will operate at a reduced capacity for the 2026 summer season.
