About
Herald Park includes three campgrounds with vehicle-accessible campsites, Bastion Mountain, Homestead, and Reinecker.
Overall, 13 of the campsites are double sites. None of the campsites are pull-through sites. All vehicles must fit on the gravel parts of your campsite, as parking is not available for extra vehicles.
We accept reservations at this park, which can be booked through the BC Parks reservation service.
Unreserved sites are available on a first come, first served basis. Register when you arrive at the gatehouse in the campground entrance or the self-registration station nearby.
Operated by Silvertip Park Services Ltd.
Fees
Peak season $46.50 CAD, shoulder season $32 CAD per party per night; non-B.C. residents +$20 CAD per stay
After that gate is closed for the winter, camping is allowed at the day-use area.
