The province has announced that it is freezing provincial park fees for the upcoming camping season.
In making the announcement, provincial Environment and Climate Change Minister Tracy Schmidt says the government is focused on keeping parks affordable and accessible for all Manitoba families.
The government also announced that they will be offering free entry into Manitoba provincial parks several times over the summer,, meaning visitors will not need to purchase vehicle permits.
Those times include June 7th to 9th, the week of July 15th to 21st, and the Labour Day long weekend,
Camping reservations for provincial parks opened earlier this week, and today is the first day that you can book campsites in Parkland area parks such as Rainbow Beackm Manipogo, Asessippi, as well as within the Duck Mountains at spots like Blue Lakes, Childs Lake, and Wellman Lake.
Reservations can be made online at www.manitobaparks.com or by calling the toll-free line at 1-888-482-2267.
