Find your perfect Alberta geodome camping experience for 2022!
Geodomes are gradually showing up in Alberta’s remote locations, lakeside campgrounds, and other scenic spots. Why? Geodomes give you indoor 360-degree views of your surroundings, including the night sky. While you camp in warmth and comfort, you can still get the full outdoor experience. They usually don’t have running water, but can provide private fire pits, private fireplaces, and one even has Wi-Fi!
