About This Spring

## Overview Beesley's Spring is a well-maintained public drinking spring located just a short drive south of Camrose, Alberta. The spring features two pipes that deliver a continuous flow of water, positioned high enough off the ground to accommodate larger jugs and containers with ease. The site is open to the public 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, making it a convenient stop for locals and travelers alike. The County of Camrose actively monitors the water quality, reportedly testing it a couple of times per month. For the latest water quality results or any questions about the spring, you can contact the County of Camrose at **780-672-4446** or visit their website at [www.county.camrose.ab.ca](http://www.county.camrose.ab.ca). While the regular testing is a reassuring sign, visitors should note that water quality can vary and no guarantee of potability can be made at any given time. ## Directions From Camrose, Alberta: 1. Head east along **Highway 13** for approximately **2 km**. 2. Turn south and follow the paved road for approximately **13 km**. 3. As the road approaches a lake and begins to level out, watch for **metal guard railings** on the side of the road. 4. Take a **right turn** at the guard railings and continue for about **50 yards**. 5. The spring will come into view shortly after the turn. **Winter access:** The County of Camrose maintains the road leading to the spring during winter months, keeping it plowed so visitors can access the spring year-round. **GPS Coordinates:** 53.022205, -112.828598 ## What to Expect Beesley's Spring is a straightforward, no-fuss water source set in the rural landscape south of Camrose. The dual-pipe setup provides a steady, continuous flow, so there's no need to wait or pump — simply place your container under one of the pipes and fill up. The pipes are elevated enough to fit larger vessels underneath, which is a thoughtful design detail for those filling multiple jugs. The surrounding area is typical of central Alberta's gently rolling farmland, and the drive out to the spring is scenic in its own quiet way. The metal guard railings near the lake serve as a reliable landmark, so keep an eye out as you approach. Because the County maintains the road and the spring infrastructure, the site is generally clean and well-kept. The year-round plowing in winter means you won't be deterred by snow — Beesley's Spring is one of those rare water sources that remains fully accessible even in the depths of an Alberta winter.
