Discover BC’s National Parks This Summer – For Free!
June 17, 2017 - 12:00 AM
Bargains like this just don’t happen every year.
Admission to Canadian National Parks is free during 2017 as part of the country’s 150th birthday celebration. Add to that a favorable exchange rate on the U.S. dollar, and a car-camping road trip north this summer looks like a steal.
It’s time to start planning. British Columbia has five great national parks within a day’s drive of Western Washington.
First, if you haven’t done so already, pick up your free parks Discovery Pass online at www.pc.gc.ca. By early March, more than 5 million people from 177 countries had applied for the pass, says Eric Magnan, outreach coordinator with Parks Canada.
