Your Visit Visitors will be impressed with the range of services now offered by many of the operating parks including visitor centres, small grocery stores, food concessions, laundromats, picnic shelters, flush toilets, trailer dumping stations, hot showers, boat launches, fishing docks, playgrounds and pay phones. Over the years, many parks have also developed museums, historical attractions and nature displays. When you're planning your trip, don't forget that more than 40 parks have interpretive programs. You may want to take part in a marshland hike, a bird banding demonstration, a fossil search or make candles like the pioneers did.
All provincial parks are open to the public year-round.
Before you head out for your park adventure, check the charts in this site for park-specific operating seasons. Remember too, that it is always wise to call ahead to confirm that the park is operating and that a campsite is available. Many parks have restricted road access and closed facilities during non-operating periods. Most parks close their entrance gates at the end of their operating season. Visitors are always welcome to enter these parks on foot.
