Backcountry Camping Permits
Backcountry camping permits are required at all designated backcountry campgrounds in Kananaskis Country. Random backcountry camping without a permit is allowed in most Wildland Provincial Parks.
Backcountry camping permits cost $12.00 per person (aged 16 and older) per night. A non-refundable reservation fee of $12.00 (GST included) will be applied to all telephone and advance bookings. These fees are used to offset the cost of the Kananaskis Country backcountry camping and trails program. Persons under 16 years of age are not required to pay the fee, but do require a permit.
Permits can be purchased in person at Barrier Lake Visitor Information Centre and the Peter Lougheed Provincial Park Visitor Information Centre during normal hours of operation.
