Located at Cameron Falls offering camping and fishing.
This lake is usually accessed by hiking the Carthew-Alderson trail, but can be accessed directly by starting at Cameron Falls in the townsite. A long, steady, continuous climb through a diverse forest brings you to the aquamarine waters of Alderson Lake. The lake is set beneath the impressive cliffs of Mount Alderson, and a backcountry campsite is located here for those who want to spend the night. Permits can be purchased at the Parks Canada Visitor Centre. Fishing is also a popular activity at this pretty alpine lake. A Waterton Park license is required.
