Discover Parks Canada

Select Parks Canada places have begun to offer some camping services and new online reservations are gradually being accepted. Keep in mind that availability may be limited. Roofed accommodations such as yurts and oTENTiks will only become available at select locations later in the season.

Given current limitations on travel, reservations from international visitors will be cancelled and automatically refunded in full up to and including August 7, 2020. Visitors traveling outside of their home province to camp at a Parks Canada destination must follow all applicable provincial or territorial travel restrictions. It is not possible to self-isolate at a Parks Canada campground.

Visit our website regularly to know what campgrounds are open, what you can expect and how to prepare. Your camping experience will be different than in past seasons but rest assured, great trips can be had while adapting to the current situation.

Our priority is to keep you, our visitors, and our employees healthy and safe. Be #ParksSmart so you can enjoy a safe visit during the COVID-19 pandemic. This includes respecting physical distancing and hygiene measures.

Plan ahead to ensure a great trip. Download or print maps before your visit, bring your own water and food and buy a pass online before you go.
