Learn more about the Bare Campsite Program

Fire

Each site has a BBQ for cooking and a fire tower
A limited supply of firewood is available
Collecting wood and natural materials from the forest is prohibited

Don't move firewood

Moving firewood, even just a few kilometers to or from a campground, is a common way for invasive insects and diseases to spread. Purchase firewood from the park and burn it in provided fire pits or leave it on-site to avoid transporting pests that may destroy our forests. Help us save forests.

Respect

While excessive noise is not allowed at any time of the day, visitors should be aware that quiet hours are enforced between 11:00 pm and 8:00 am
Respect nature: leave nothing but footprints and take nothing but pictures
Please leave your site as tidy as, or tidier than, you found it
Review the visitor guidelines and important bulletins prior to your trip
