David Thompson Resort Campground

Surrounded by the untouched beauty of the Bighorn near the shores of Abraham Lake, the David Thompson Resort Campground offers a welcoming base for travellers seeking an authentic mountain escape. Whether you arrive by tent, trailer, or RV, the campground provides a range of sites—both serviced and unserviced—that blend comfort with nature. All campers enjoy direct access to washrooms, hot showers, picnic areas, and nearby trails.

This family-friendly campground is ideal for those looking to unplug and reconnect—either with the wild landscape or with each other. Evenings bring mountain stillness and stargazing opportunities few places can match. The resort’s quiet hours and community-minded layout ensure a respectful, restful experience, while amenities like fire pits (with on-site firewood sales) and a playground encourage quality time in the fresh alpine air.

Guests can take advantage of on-site conveniences including the General Store, Service Station, restaurant, and even coin-operated laundry—making longer stays easy and enjoyable. The location also puts you within reach of Abraham Lake, scenic hiking trails, waterfalls, and day trips along the Icefields Parkway.

Whether you’re setting up basecamp for your Rockies adventure or simply relaxing in the crisp mountain air, the David Thompson Resort Campground offers the balance of wild and welcome that defines the Nordegg & Abraham Lake region.
