Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park

2026 Camping Season Update:

As a result of the microburst in June 2025, many areas of Samuel de Champlain experienced significant damage, including trees, roadways and other critical infrastructure. For safety reasons, certain sections of the park have been closed in the interim (including some hiking trails, roads, campgrounds, etc.). Most notably, the entire west side of the park which includes Jingwakoki Campground will remain closed to the public at this time.

Restoration efforts throughout the entire park are ongoing and may cause noise and intermittent disruptions. Please respect all closures and maintain a safe distance from work crews to ensure everyone's safety. We appreciate your understanding and patience during this period.

Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park is currently inaccessible and closed to the public, due to the effects of a severe storm on June 21, 2025. The storm, which included a microburst, resulted in extensive tree damage and hazardous conditions throughout the park.
