End – Canada Parks Information

Information

Description: The BC Parks website provides excellent detailed information about each park. It is advised to read the details page for a selected park so you become familiar with BC Park’s policies that affect camping for that specific park and other important information they provide.

Depending on the park and location, there may be restrictions imposed due to weather conditions, fire risks, etc. Please keep yourself informed accordingly.

Detail Campsite Information provided — size of the park, number of campsites, reservable sites, “first come first serve sites”, special notes, links to images of each campsite within the park, background information, activities featured in the park, services provided, etc. It is quite detailed.

Park & Campsite Images / Videos — look for the image gallery button and also where site numbers appear, (ie: site 1-10 ), these will likely be linked providing you images of the individual campsites making it really easy for you to choose the right campsite for your holiday enjoyment. On some park pages, they provide videos of the parks (I have to admit, they did a good job with their website).

Handicap Access — Any park can pose natural restrictions to a handicapped person, due to its terrain, yet BC Parks endeavours to provide handicap access features where possible and so noted on the details page.

Water Advisories — Boil water advisories may affect any one of the parks and this advisory may be in effect the entire season. You can confirm if this advisory is in effect on the Park Details page or calling the park maintenance contractor assigned to the park, whose phone number is also on the Park Details page at the left side.

More Information

Contact Information For a Specific Park

On each specific park details page on the BC Parks website, go to the left side column under the heading “Park Contact”. There will be the current contact information for that park.

Why we don’t include Park Contact Information here

BC Parks out-sources maintenance and repair work to private contractors. Many of these contractors provide contact information on each park webpage. OKConnect cannot include contractors information here because private contractors will come and go. Keeping up with their contact information, with the size and amount of information on this OK Connect website, is logistically impracticable.

Trip Advisor — It is also advised that any contact information for Provincial Parks when reading review sites as Trip Advisor, will likely be out of date, since they won’t maintain the information to make sure it is current and the park contractor will generally not update those review sites anyway.

Best to obtain current contact information on the specific Provincial Park page. Our Camping Provincial Parks provides links to each park page.
