Trapper Lea's Cabin Provincial Recreation Area is an Alberta Parks recreation area in the Central region, 30 kilometres south of Swan Hills on Highway 33. Alberta Parks lists one campground and no developed day-use area count.
The official page says the Town of Swan Hills is the leaseholder.
Trapper Lea's Cabin is a small Lower Foothills campground for visitors who want direct access to nearby trail systems. Alberta Parks lists camping, off-site OHV riding, and off-site snowmobiling as the posted activities.
The access rules are more permissive than many other recreation areas in this batch. Alberta Parks says direct access to the trail system from campsites is permitted for OHV use, but riders should use ATVs only to directly access trails and respect other campers. Snowmobiling also has direct access to the trail system.
The official page notes that the recreation area is located on the site of Trapper Lea's historic cabins. That gives the campground a clear local-history hook in addition to its trail access.
The park-management profile lists the site at 18.36 acres, or 7.43 hectares, in the Foothills - Lower Foothills Natural Region.
Plan trail exits carefully.
Plan around camping, direct OHV trail access, direct snowmobile trail access, historic cabin context, Swan Hills route planning, map review, and quiet campground etiquette.
Confirm campground status, leaseholder updates, OHV and snowmobile access rules, trail conditions, maps, road conditions, weather, wildlife safety, and Alberta Parks updates.
