Using Accessible Campsites

A camper who has reserved a campsite identified as "accessible" is required to show an accessible parking placard at check-in.
If an accessible placard is not available, the campground operator may accept other evidence of a disability provided voluntarily by the registered camper.
An open (unoccupied, unreserved) accessible campsite may be made available to any camper after 6:00 p.m. at the discretion of the campground operator.

Designating Accessible Campsites

"Accessible" campsites meet basic access criteria:

clear designation of the accessible campsite (on park map/entry kiosk/site number post);
a firm and level dirt, crushed rock or paved campsite surface;
a clear space around the tent pad and between other fixed elements (i.e. campfire, hook-ups);
a campsite free of barriers and unprotected hazards;
an accessible path less than 60 metres to an accessible washroom/pit toilet;
an accessible picnic table (knee clearance and clear space) in the campsite; and
basic access to firepit and/or grill, if applicable.
