One of the most scenic campgrounds where every site offers a great view of the surrounding mountains.

The Two O’Clock Creek Campground is one of the most scenic in the region but with only 26 sites, including 6 walk-in tenting sites, it’s best to get there by mid-afternoon to make sure that you get a spot for the night.

Every site offers a great view of the surrounding mountains and the Kootenay Plains. Some sites are smaller, mostly facing the meadow at the centre of the campground with larger sites on the outside. There are a few secluded walk-in tenting sites but unfortunately, they are located the closest to the highway.
