Information
The Gregg Cabin Recreation Area is a well-used recreational area with 11 campsites located beside the historic Gregg Cabin in the southern portion of Hinton Wood Products' Forest Management Area (FMA).
This campground can normally be booked as a group campground on the weekends (by reservation only). The cost is $185 per night.
If reserved by campsite, there is a reservation fee of $10. If reserved as a group site or a single campsite, the first night's fee is non-refundable if cancelled. If the camp is not booked as a group campground, individual campsites can be reserved (sites are normally available mid-week).
FRMA provides firewood free of charge.
Activities
ATV use is permitted in and around the campground. Also located at the Gregg Cabin Recreation Area is the new Gregg picnic shelter (including a wood burning stove), cedar toilets, bear-proof garbage cans, numerous signs, a wood bin and three kiosks with interpretive media. The site is also a starting point for the Pine Management Interpretive Trail, and a starting or finishing point for the Bighorn Trail.
How to Get Here
When travelling west from Edmonton, turn left (south) onto Highway 40, approximately 4 kilometres past the town of Hinton.
