British Columbia will have more happy campers in the new year.

The sites can be booked four months before the scheduled arrival date.

鈥淭hrough our ongoing visitor engagement, we鈥檝e heard the majority of campers prefer a four-month rolling window, allowing people to book a site well in advance of their visit,鈥� said George Heyman, Minister of Environment and Climate Change Strategy. 鈥淲e will continue to listen to public feedback so we can improve people鈥檚 park experiences, and everyone can easily access the many beautiful parks and backcountry areas our province has to offer.鈥�

鈥淲e are fortunate to live in a province that has an abundance of spectacular parks for people to connect with nature and learn about Indigenous Peoples鈥� history and culture,鈥� said Kelly Greene, parliamentary secretary for environment. 鈥淲e continue to expand opportunities for camping and improve accessibility so more people can experience the natural treasures of our beautiful province.鈥�

The new BC Parks reservation service was launched in March 2022.
