Camping in BC Parks just got a little easier
Now that the snow is beginning to, well, melt, campers and hikers will be eager to get to the phone or computer to start making plans for summer time fun.
The BC government announced starting on Thursday (March 15) the public will be able to book up to three reservations at one time for their favourite BC Parks campground — reservation fees apply for each booking.
All reservations can be made on the Discover Camping reservations system.
Reservations for all frontcountry provincial campgrounds begin at 7 a.m. on Thursday, March 15; reservations for group sites are available up to 12 months in advance and reservations for the Bowron Lake canoe circuit opened in January to accommodate international visitors’ travel plans.
Also new this year is the addition of the Ralph River campground to Discover Camping reservations. Ralph River is in Strathcona Provincial Park on Vancouver Island.
More great news is the dreaded parking fees were eliminated from B.C.’s provincial parks on May 3, 2011, making parks more accessible and inviting to families.
Discover Camping reservations website https://secure.camis.com/Discovercamping/ allows the public to view the availability and amenities at more than 125 reservable campgrounds in 78 provincial parks across B.C.
