Parks Canada Fees

How much does an unforgettable moment cost?
Less than you might think.

Fee Freeze

We have frozen prices for all Parks Canada entry fees, camping at national parks, lockage and mooring at historic canals and several other national fees for basic services.

This price freeze will help the tourism industry and local economies – and help more Canadians experience our treasured natural and historic places. For the general public, 2008 prices are in effect until April 1, 2011. For commercial groups, 2009 prices are in effect until April 1, 2012. 

Throughout the next couple of years, we will also be introducing unique new products and services, like yurt accommodation and innovative interpretive programming. Some local fees may need to be adjusted or established as a result of these service enhancements, but this would not take effect until at least 2010.

All revenues from fees at national parks and national historic sites and national marine conservation areas are reinvested at the location for such purposes as maintenance, repairs or replace aging visitor facilities as well as enhancing visitor experiences. Prices are set to ensure a good value to visitors as well as a fair economic return for taxpayers based on market value and rates.

So plan your visit today, with prices you can count on tomorrow.
