Tent and RV camping

• Camping is only permitted at designated campsites
• Maximum length of stay is 14 days
• Vehicles and tents must be within your designated site and on the tent pad
• You may want to consider bringing a self-supported tent to create a nice shady and dry spot at your site. Do not tie anything to the trees, including tarps. Tarps should be strung using poles.
• Secure all food inside your vehicle or hard sided trailer/RV when you aren't eating. Refer to the 'Bare' Campsite program for more information
• The use of “hot tents”, or tents with an indoor woodstove or wood-burning heater, is prohibited.

Any time after 2 pm.

For Otentiks check-in is between 4 pm and 11 pm

Visitors who would like to arrive at the campground earlier may enjoy the rest of the park while waiting for their campsite to become vacant (a valid national park entry pass is required).

After hours registration: Please refer to signage at the registration centre in Whistlers Campground or kiosk window for other reservable campgrounds. Locate your name or confirmation # and proceed to designated campsite. Register in the morning at the registration centre or kiosk by 10 am.

Before 11 am.

2 tents maximum or 1 RV/camper and 1 tent

2 vehicles per site

All camping equipment must fit on the gravel driveway and/or tent pad of the site.

Additional overnight parking is available to campers for a fee at the Whistlers Campground registration building. Space is limited.

We work hard to ensure that visitors get a good night's sleep. It is for this reason that quiet hours are in effect daily.

• Quiet hours are from 11 pm – 7 am
• Campfires, visitors, consumption of alcohol, cannabis and cannabis products are not permitted during this time.
• Only site occupants are allowed in the campground after 11 pm

Please remember, even quiet conversations can carry through a forested area. Excessive noise is not permitted at any time of the day. Please report disturbances to the campground staff.

Please keep your campfire safe for you and the environment by following these rules:

• Keep fires small – To reduce their impact on the environment, fires must be contained within the fire pit provided and be kept to a reasonable size. It is illegal to start a fire outside of a designated location.
• Use firewood provided – Transporting wood from elsewhere may spread invasive bugs and disease. Use an axe or hatchet to make your own kindling from the firewood provided. Please do not burn garbage.
• Keep it down – Please respect your neighbours by keeping your voices down and putting out fires during quiet hours (11 pm – 7 am).
• Never leave a fire – Fires must be attended at all times.

Portable showers are not permitted at campgrounds. 

In Parks Canada’s campgrounds, cannabis consumption will be limited to a visitor’s campsite (with a valid camping permit). It’s important to note that public consumption is not permitted in common areas within campgrounds (e.g. playgrounds, kitchen shelters, washrooms, trails, roads). This is similar to the approach Parks Canada follows for other regulated substances, like alcohol.

To keep pets and wildlife safe, your pets must be leashed at all times and not left unattended. Pet food should be stored inside your vehicle.

When not being consumed or used, all food, toiletries and items that may attract wildlife must be kept in your vehicle or hard-sided trailer. Coolers are not bear proof. Campers must adhere to the 'Bare' Campsite program or risk having their camping permit revoked without refund.

Birds chirping, leaves rustling and, oh, a generator! Many visitors camp to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Generators are permitted daily between 8 am – 10 am and 5 pm – 7 pm only.

You can be a good neighbour and have a great camping experience by respecting the following guidelines:

• Washing dishes – Please use a personal basin for washing dishes (not the bathrooms, where space is limited) and dump grey water down outdoor sinks.
• Washing laundry - Please use your own tub and dump water down the outdoor sink or toilets. Do not tie clotheslines to the trees. Laundry facilities are available in the Town of Jasper.
• Greywater - Always dispose of greywater/wastewater in a campground toilet, or at a dump station. Pouring wastewater on the ground can cause damage to the environment or become a wildlife attractant.
• Recycling - Bottles and cans (refundable containers) can be recycled in each campground.
• Children - To ensure the safety of your children, please supervise them at all times. Children may become lost in the campground or may unknowingly trespass on a neighbouring campsite.
• Driving - Respect the posted speed limits and remain alert while driving in the campground. Trees may obstruct your view and pedestrians, especially children, may suddenly dart out onto the road.
• Accessing facilities - Please use roadways and pathways to access campground facilities (cook shelters, bathrooms, etc.) and your own campsite. Cutting through a neighbouring campsite will disturb other campers and may cause damage to the fragile vegetation.

A special effort is being made by park staff and campers to ensure that no wildlife attractants are ever left unattended at any sites in these campgrounds. The "Bare" Campsite program is in place for your safety, and to help keep the wildlife in our national parks alive and wild.

Campers who fail to comply with the "Bare" Campsite Program or other regulations listed above may have their camping permit revoked, without a refund. They may also be charged under the Canada National Parks Act. The permit holder is responsible for ensuring the campsite is maintained in a satisfactory condition.
