Hunting
Hunting areas start outside of the town limits, although the more sought after spots are at the edge of the Rockies one hour away from the Town of Sylvan Lake. Licenses are required and can be purchased through a local guide.

Hunting for big game such as Deer, Elk, Moose and sheep, generally starts mid August and ends in December

Camping can be done year round either in or around the surounding areas of Sylvan Lake. There are many designated campgrounds to choose from.

Camping equipment can be rented but has to be pre-arranged. Your choices range from large motor homes to trailers that you tow behind your vehicle. You can even tent it if you feel like roughing it. We can set up camping for you for a weekend or a week. All you have to do is bring your family and your food!
