All park users must have a valid park permit for day or overnight use. Day use permits are available at the East and West Gates and at access point permit offices. An Interior camping permit reserves your group a site on each lake you intend to camp on, so each access point issues permits based on the number of available campsites. Permits can be booked in advance but must be purchased at the park permit office servicing the access point you are starting from. Most permit offices are located at the access points (for example, at Lake Opeongo); others are located on the road in (for example, parties driving to our Brent base should purchase their permits at the permit office just south of Hwy. 17) and some serve several access points (e.g. the office at Canoe Lake services Canoe, Smoke, Cache and Source lakes). Camping fees and regulations are government controlled and subject to change.
