Tips for Snagging a Campsite Reservation

1. Mount Seymour’s two group camping sites available for year-round reservation.
2. All group campsite reservations must be made by phone or online at BC Parks’ Discover Camping website.

When to Go

Mount Seymour Provincial Park is open year-round. During the winter months, the resort area is busy with skiers and riders, while the park sees winter snowshoe and hiking enthusiasts. In summer, Mount Seymour’s lower sections are teeming with mountain bikers, while hikers occupy the upper sections accessible from the resort’s parking lot. Due to the park’s popularity and proximity to populated areas, day-use permits may be required in summer. Winter trails are put in place from mid-December through March 31 each year.

Know Before You Go

• Due to the park’s popularity in summer, BC Parks has instituted a day-use pass reservation system. This is to limit overcrowding and impacts on the park’s alpine sensitive environment. 
• Mount Seymour Provincial Park doesn’t have wifi, and cell phone service can be spotty along the upper mountain trails.
• Open fires aren’t permitted in the park’s backcountry.
• The mountainous backcountry can be rugged and unforgiving, so visitors should be experienced and properly equipped. Anyone planning to travel in the backcountry (whether overnight or for just a few hours) should inform a friend or family member of their intended route and anticipated return time.
• Winter snowshoe trails and ski trails marked by BC Parks do not require a permit or day-use pass.
