Engagement summary
Have you visited a BC Park recently? Whether you camped, hiked, biked, boated, or got up to something else, we want to hear from you.
BC Parks is committed to protecting and managing the province’s diverse wilderness for future generations, and providing high-quality, safe, outdoor recreation opportunities.
Our goal is to better understand the experiences of residents and visitors who use parks across the province. Through this survey, we hope to learn more about who is visiting parks, what activities they enjoy while visiting, what they like about parks, and where there is room for improvement. This information will be used to support future decision-making, training, and funding for facilities, trails, and other initiatives.
Participants from all park types (front country, backcountry, marine, and day use) are encouraged to share their perspectives.
