Brazeau Reservoir east Canal Group Campground Provincial Recreational Area.

Brazeau Reservoir east Canal Campground is located approximately 244km southwest of Edmonton, 15km  east of the main Brazeau Reservoir Campground. There are less then 8 campsites located on a small point next to the east Canal of Brazeau Reservoir. Each site has a picnic table and fire pit. Some of the sites are located on or near the reservoir and close enough to keep a boat next to. This campground offers dry toilets, refuse containers, fire wood, good boat launch, fish cleaning stations and an open grassy area next to the canal. There is no drinking water here. Brazeau Reservoir is excellent for power boating, canoeing, kayaking and fishing. Be careful with a power boat, there are a few shallow spots and floating debris can be a real hazard here. The reservoir is man made for hydroelectricity and is approximately 10km long with the dam on the northeast end. Bird watching can be very good as the reservoir attracts several different bird species. The reservoir holds Trout, Char, Grayling and Whitefish, you'll need a fishing license to try out your luck. There is a pond next to the road leading into the campground that is stocked with Rainbow trout. Night skies here rank # 2 on the Bortle Scale. The road leading to the campground is approximately 15km of gravel. The west Canal and Main Reservoir campgrounds are located within a few km's of here. This is bear country, food and food related items must be stored properly.
