Spring is less than two weeks away and the one thing I’ve been waiting for is the chance to spend more time outdoors! Some Ontario Parks are slowly starting to open for the season and if you’ve been itchin’ to explore nature as spring trickles in, be sure to keep track of these parks opening soon.
Ontario Parks operates over 340 parks around the province and naturally, they can’t all open for the season at once! Some parks operate year-round, while others open in the spring.
Opening dates also depend on if the park is a day-use park only, or if it accommodates backcountry/roofed camping.
