FAQ Category Archives: Fees

Can more than one vehicle/RV camp in the same campsite?

Generally this is allowed, BUT you will be charged full rate for two RV’s, campers, etc., and extra cars will be charged at least a half fee. This is up to our, and BC Parks discretion, to allow. More than two vehicles on a site are not generally allowed.

If I come early, can I save a campsite for a friend?

This is not allowed. Wells Gray Park is a long drive from anywhere, so saving sites is generally unfair to other park users.

Can I reserve a Campsite?

Only at North Thompson, Clearwater Lake/Falls Creek and Mahood campgrounds.

Can I pay with my Credit Card or Debit Card?

No. Cash or Travelers Cheques are the only acceptable forms of payment. Personal cheques are not accepted!

How much does it cost to stay in the park?

All drive in campsites are $16 dollars per night, per vehicle (see registration sign for details). Marine campsite fees (boat or canoe access on Clearwater/Azure/Murtle) are $5 per person (6 years or older) per night (see registration sign for details). Non-payment of fees is grounds for eviction or fines under the park act.

  • About Clearwater

    About an hour and 20 minute drive north of Kamloops, Clearwater has one or two of everything; a small supermarket(Safety Mart), a hospital, a library, a couple of hardware stores, several auto mechanics, fine dining, and lots of excellent hotels, B and B's, and motels.

    The town is also a hive of outdoor adventure. You can try just about every outdoor activity imaginable, including:

    • Whitewater rafting & kayaking
    • Dog sledding
    • Horseback riding
    • Guided fly fishing
    • Guided canoe adventures
    • Cross country skiing
    • Hiking
  • Blue River

    Blue River is a good place for a pit stop, but don't look for much in the way of facilities. There are several motels and restaurants, a couple gas stations, two general stores, and a medical station. That’s about it. There's no bank, so if you need cash get it in Clearwater or Valemount. The same goes for most groceries and camping supplies.
