The campground industry invites and welcomes first-time and seasoned campers alike to enjoy Canada’s beautiful and diverse backyard; but, Know Before You Go – a little planning can keep you and your family safe and preserve our environment for future travelers; and please learn and practice the Camper’s Code to educate your family and others to help us all camp responsibly.

We encourage campgrounds to share this resource on their websites and in their guest communications to spread the word to campers! Together we can help protect our camping environments and lifestyle for future generations.

The Camper’s Code has 9 Rules that are really easy to follow. When all Campers follow them, these good things happen:

  • Camping continues to be enjoyable for all

  • Nature remains pristine and beautiful

  • People camping in the same area become friends

  • Animals stay wild and free

The Camper’s Code has NINE simple rules that are easy for ALL campers and RVers to follow that make experiencing the outdoors better for everyone: 

  • Plan ahead, be prepared, and take safety first.
  • Respect your camping neighbours by keeping noise levels low and adhering to posted quiet hours.
  • Respect wildlife – Do not feed or approach wild animals. Instead, use binoculars to observe from afar.
  • Control your pets – Know where your pets can go and keep them under control.
  • Take photos only – Nature and all its glory are for everyone to enjoy. Please leave natural objects undisturbed and where they are – like mushrooms, flowers, and wood.
  • Practice fire safety – In the current forest fire climate, respect nature and when possible, use a propane fire.
  • Store food safely – Food and scented items can attract wild animals. Always store food in a wildlife-proof container or hard-sided vehicle.
  • Don’t litter – Littering is not cool in the natural environment under any circumstance. If there are no garbage bins around, be kind and pack it out!
  • Staff and signs are here to help and keep you safe. Please adhere to their guidance and everyone can recreate safely.
