Tw7 Twin Lakes Camp

Twin Lakes Camp (Tw7) is a backcountry campground in Banff National Park, Alberta, situated between Upper and Lower Twin Lakes.

It sits just beyond Upper Twin Lake, nestled within a forested corridor, and serves as the overnight destination for hikers tackling the Arnica Lake and Upper Twin Lake trails — a moderate one-way route of roughly four miles with about 2,260 feet of elevation gain.

The campground can also be reached via a longer north approach beginning near the TransCanada Highway and Highway 93 junction, or as part of an epic 38-kilometre journey from Sunshine Village through Egypt Lake and Shadow Lake.

The surrounding terrain features striking blue alpine lakes, views of Storm Mountain, patches of lingering snow into late summer, and a mossy lower forest along the creek. Advance reservations through Parks Canada are required for backcountry camping at Tw7.
