Camping Fees
Camping fees in British Columbia's parks range from $10 to $24 per party, per vehicle, per night. In April 2008, there was an increase of $1 per night for rustic and basic sites, and $2 per night for moderate and developed sites. Despite this, camping fees for BC's parks remain competitive with those of Alberta, Ontario, Washington State, Oregon and Parks Canada.
The revenue from camping fees is used to maintain and repair facilities, and to improve services. Such improvements include: rebuilding day-use areas and campgrounds, upgrading drinking water systems, replacing shower and toilet buildings, and improving trails and roads.
