Quetico Provincial Park

Due to nearby forest fire activity, Quetico Provincial Park has closed Dawson Trail Campground, including campsites, roofed accommodations, and all day-use areas. Backcountry entry stations are also closed.

Public safety is our top priority. We will reopen the park as soon as it is safe to do so. We will be reassessing again on July 25, 2026 if further cancellations are required.

Affected reservation holders will be contacted and given a full refund or the opportunity to change their reservation (on availability) with no penalty.
