<\/span>Free Camping At Birch Lake<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

It’s no secret that I love camping super lots, so when I had an opportunity to go camping at Birch Lake in central Alberta, I jumped on it (I went in a Karma Campervan<\/a>). Took lots of photos too. Birch Lake is located southwest from Caroline, Alberta, in the district of Sundre. It’s a beautiful lake surrounded by forest, and fortunately for Albertans who like to camp for free, it’s also surrounded by crown land. Even though there are no designated campgrounds around Birch Lake, there are several ‘regular’ spots people use, which are more or less the same thing, you just get to camp at no cost. Don’t forget to bring your own firewood!<\/p>\n

Lots of mosquitoes out there too. Don’t say I didn’t warn ya!<\/p>\n
