Next week is Earth Week, and we can think of no better way to celebrate than to get out and enjoy the great outdoors. Ever try spring camping? You should. It’s experiencing all that our fantastic provincial parks offer, without the mosquitoes, crowds and sunburns.

We found some other great reasons why spring camping is the way to go:

  • The greens are never greener than in the spring! Dig out that camera and show off your skills.
  • Spring provides amazing scenery. Beaches are generally thought of as a summer location but you can enjoy the sanctity of a sunrise or sunset, on a brisk walk on a beach to yourself. Enjoy solitude this spring.
  • Don’t wait until the night to enjoy the rewards of building a fire; the cool days of spring give you a perfect excuse to have a campfire all day long! Besides, who doesn’t enjoy a midday S’more?
  • Wildlife is always a positive reason to get out in nature, but spring is when you could see babies! Who doesn’t want to see cute little fuzzy creatures? Whether you are seeing a shaky legged moose, fuzzy fledglings or tiny baby rabbits, animals are out in abundance in the spring. And keep your eyes open: spring is a perfect time to see a moose family.

That’s settled, then. Generally, you don’t need a reservation at this time of year, but if you want, you can book your campsite here. Happy Trails!
