Visiting with dogs
To protect wildlife, pets and visitors, dogs are not allowed at the Summit Area or in the backcountry of Mount Revelstoke National Park. Dogs are welcome below Columbia Viewpoint on the Meadows in the Sky Parkway, but must remain on a leash at all times. Find dog-friendly areas and additional information.
Snowforest Campground
To ensure the safety of bears and people, Snowforest Campground is currently restricted to hard-sided camping units only. Hard-side camping means a truck-camper, motorhome, or recreational vehicle completely without soft sides.
