Planning questions

Campsite questions, answered

What counts as free camping?

A green single pin marks a place with no camping fee; a green numbered group contains at least one such place. Neither promises an open site, a free permit, or legal camping at nearby pull-offs. Check the land manager’s map, access, fire rules, and posted signs.

Ontario Crown land has separate eligibility and permit rules, especially for non-residents. Read Ontario’s rules and atlas ↗

Can I book a campsite from this map?

The map helps you discover places; it does not show live vacancies or hold a site. Open a park’s official link to check dates, campsite type, fees, and reservation rules before you travel.

How do I find a campsite near me?

Choose a region, search by park or town, or use “Find my covered area.” Zoom into a group to compare places, then use the operator link for the exact campground and directions.

What should I bring for a first car-camping trip?

Start with shelter, a sleep system, water, food, lighting, and clothing for the forecast. Use our beginner’s guide and printable checklist to fill in the details.
