Large first-come first-serve CG just across the bridge from Snaring River CG. It has a loop to the right as you go in, which has sites among the trees.

Large first-come first-serve CG just across the bridge from Snaring River CG. It has a loop to the right as you go in, which has sites among the trees. All the other loops are in the large, flat, central area, which has no trees. It's mainly a big weedy gravel lot with individual sites marked off. Very exposed, no screening from neighbors or anything. Not a characteristic that I prefer. However, it does provide great views of the mountains. Vault toilets, water. No fires. Railroad tracks very close so there may be noise from that, but not the train whistles. It's ok if you really need a place to stay and the nearby Snaring CG is full.

We went to Jasper National Park in August with no reservations. We got here at about 9am on a Sunday morning and there was already a line of campers waiting for a spot at this FCFS overflow campground. Luckily, we got in!
The campground is nothing special. Basically a parking lot with dumpsters. No campfires allowed. The views are amazing. The location is great for everything you'd want to see in Jasper. We got one bar of talk on AT&T first thing in th morning, but basically no cell service. For being in the park without reservations, this is a great option!

Got in to Jasper late and was hoping to stay at whistler campground. Didn’t found out it is close for renovation until we are there. People at campground told us to go to snaring overflow. Great dark night sky right at the campsite as I’m into night photography. Actually saw a little bit of aurora on the night I stayed. Great site if you don’t need any hookups!!
