Camp for free
There are many beautiful places across Canada where you can camp for free. I’m fortunate to be from British Columbia, where there are an abundance of forestry sites that offer free camping. These sites offer little to no amenities - which means you won’t find any showers. Some have outhouses, picnic tables, fire pits, and if you’re lucky, you might find a shelter hut where you can keep dry and cook your food if the weather turns bad. But don’t be surprised if you find nothing more but a few flat surfaces for pitching tents.
The website FreeCampsites.net is a good place to start. You will be able to find free and cheap camping sites across Canada and the USA.
You are also allowed to camp and hike on Crown Land for free, and there are plenty of beautiful trails, forests, and mountains to explore. However, there are some rules, which will vary depending on the province. For example, in BC you are only allowed to camp on crown land for 14 consecutive days, and in Ontario, the maximum is 21 days.
Discount camping
If you camp often, it might be worth it to join a campground chain’s discount program. For example, KOA has campsites across Canada and the United States, and for $24/year, offers a 10 per cent discount to its loyalty cardholders. Camping at KOA sites are usually a bit more expensive $25-30/night, but offers many amenities, including water, WIFI, electricity, swimming pools, showers, and more.
For an annual fee of $44, Passport America offers a 50 per cent discount on over 1,800 campgrounds across North America.
Some campgrounds might charge a small fee for having more than one tent, but most places allow it for free, and the more people you have, the cheaper the camping is.
