The backcountry of Tweedsmuir Park is an isolated wilderness with infrequent patrols by park staff. You should be experienced in wilderness travel, fit and well equipped.
Snow is possible any month of the year in the mountains.
Visitors must bring appropriate maps. If you plan to hike overnight or longer you should inform a responsible person or agency of your intentions, including estimated return time and destination. Grizzly and black bears range throughout the park, and grizzlies congregate on the Dean and Atnarko Rivers between May and October when salmon are in the river. People should be particularly cautious when fishing and hiking. Obey all closures and warnings.
