Bic National Park camping guide

Overview

About

Set where the opposite bank of the St. Lawrence fades into the foggy distance, Bic National Park and its seaside forests present plenty of family-friendly hiking trails. For a panoramic view of the estuary and string of islets, hike the 346 metres of Pic Champlain. For a more challenging experience, head over to the rocky outcrops of Cap à l’Original at low tide. The Ferme Rioux Interpretation Centre is where most activities, such as sea kayaking, mountain biking, and yes, wildlife observation (there is a healthy population of outgoing seals at Anse-aux-Bouleaux), can be booked. Camping in Bic National Park is easily one of the most iconic things to do in Quebec. Luckily, there are over 20 options to choose from, ranging from rustic campsites to glamping cabins.

When to go

While Bic National Park is open year-round, some services may not be available in winter, and camping is only possible from May to October. As one of the few waterfront camping sites in Quebec, Bic camping sites are quite crowded at all times, but particularly so in the last week of June as well as the last week of July and first week of August due to provincial holidays.

Know before you go

In order to stay overnight at one of the Bic camping sites, you will need to pay the daily entrance fee per adult on top of the nightly camping rate.

There is a maximum number of visitors allowed on-site at any given time; arrive early to avoid being refused entry due to full capacity.
Dogs are allowed on-site, but only in certain areas. Guide dogs and service dogs are allowed everywhere.
Activities and open sectors vary from winter to summer.
