Calgary & Edmonton, AB

[PghBob]

We are planning a trip this summer to the Canadian Rockies, especially Banff and Jasper NPs. We will be traveling in a 27 foot Class C. I am requesting info. on the following:

Are there any obstructions along the way to pick up family members arriving at Calgary Airport? By obstructions I mean low overpasses that might take off the roof of the RV.

While most of time we expect to be in the NPs, we would like to see the cities as well. Expect to be in Calgary pre-stampede in mid-June. What are the must-sees and any recommended camp grounds?

Likewise, expect to visit Edmonton after leaving Jasper. Must-sees and camp ground recommendations for the Capital City?

Thanks for the help.

Bob

Hi,

There is oversize parking at the Calgary airport. If you use that there are no obstructions.

I would not care to recommend any of the campgrounds in Calgary--but there are lots of good ones to the west of Calgary that are provincial parks. There is a nice one at Cochran AB.

There is, purportedly, a wonderful zoo in Calgary. I have never been to it.
