About
The Paul Creek Recreation Site is a small treed site off of the Beaverfoot Forest Service Road.
Road access. User-maintained site with no regular servicing. Facilities on file: toilets, picnic tables, fire rings. First come, first served.
Getting there: Access the Beaverfoot Forest Service Road from the Trans Canada Highway east of Golden. Keep left at the 23km junction and continue to just past the 42km mark. Turn left onto the site access road just before Paul Creek bridge. Note: the short access road has been washed out. Access to site is still possible, but will require a short walk in.
