National Parks

Canada’s National Parks – the adventure destinations which are identified with national park designations that are located in Canada attract millions of travelers to our country every summer and winter.

Many visit during the summer season to enjoy activities like camping, hiking, backpacking, birding, swimming, kayaking, canoeing, swimming, boating, biking, horseback riding, surfing, water skiing and so much more.

But it does not stop in the summer months. Oh no! There are many national parks in Canada which are open for play during the winter season as well.  Travelers enjoy winter adventures like cross country, snowshoeing, ice fishing, winter camping, skiing, snowboarding, dog sledding, snowmobiling and others.

The landscape may look different and the activities change every season but that does not stop Canadians and visitors from having fun. In many ways our seasons give us two versions of each park. How lucky are we!
