What you can expect if you go Camping in Spring 2020:
Only facilities that “offer long-term accommodation for users (greater than four weeks) or where the site is the user’s primary accommodation are being recommended to remain open”, AHS says. “Campgrounds that choose to remain open would be expected to implement strict control measures to prevent COVID-19 spread.”
FIRE & ATV BANS ON GOVERNMENT LAND (at this time of publishing April 15, 2020) there is a FIRE BAN and ATV/OHV Ban in place for Alberta’s Forest Protection Area, as well as Provincial Parks, Crown land and Protected areas. The province is taking measures to reduce the fire risk during the COVID-19 crisis. The Forest Protection Areas affected east of Edmonton are located north of Athabasca, Lac La Biche and Cold Lake. Provincial Parks and Recreation Areas throughout the region are CLOSED and have these bans in place. Exempt from this ban are privately owned and municipally owned land. That means private campgrounds that will open this spring will allow campfires, but you must check www.AlbertaFireBans.ca to know the current conditions in each of the County regions. Note that Lac La Biche County has a complete fire ban as of today, April 15, 2020.
