Campsite reservations set to open for Prince Albert National Park

Jan 28, 2024 | 12:00 PM

Campground reservations for Prince Albert National Park and Grasslands National Park are set to open next week.

According to a release from Parks Canada, beginning at 8 a.m. on Feb. 2, visitors can secure their camping spots for May 16 to October 13 in Prince Albert National Park and May 1 to Oct. 13 in Grasslands National Park.

Reservations can be made online at reservation.pc.gc.ca or by calling 1-877-RESERVE (1-877-737-3783).

The Parks Canada Reservation Service was updated last year and looks different from the platform used before 2023 but offers similar features.

All users will need to set up an account for this new system, including those who had an account from the old Parks Canada Reservation Service. Details about how to set up a new account are available on Parks Canada’s website.
