Campground Reservations Begin January 30
Calling all outdoor aficionados! Parks Canada is pleased to announce the opening of campground reservations for Prince Albert National Park. Beginning January 30, 2026 at 8:00 a.m. CST, visitors can secure their camping spots for May 14 to October 11 in Beaver Glen campground in Prince Albert National Park through the Parks Canada Reservation System. Reservations can be made online at reservation.pc.gc.ca or by calling 1-877-RESERVE (1-877-737-3783). For the best reservation experience, users can set up an account in the reservation system in advance of the reservation opening date. Details about how to set up a new account are available on the Parks Canada website.
Red Deer Campground will be open to visitors during the peak summer months of July and August. Parks Canada is investing in electrical upgrades at Red Deer campground that will support the long-term safety and reliability of high-quality services and enhance the visitor experience for years to come. Construction will occur in the spring and fall, and as a result, reservations for Red Deer Campground will not launch on January 30th. Parks Canada will announce a new reservation launch date once construction timelines are finalized.
The Canada Strong Pass is back, offering free admission to national historic sites, national parks, and national marine conservation areas operated by Parks Canada and a 25 per cent discount on camping fees from June 19 to September 7, 2026!
