We’re pleased to welcome back visitors at Smileys Provincial Park. The park will be open for camping until September 16 and for day-use until October 14.
Campsites 16 – 81 are available for camping this season. Campsites 1 – 15 will remain closed. We do not plan to re-establish them due to their location on the flood plain. Planning, design, consultation and a management plan for Smileys will be forthcoming over the coming fiscal year.
There is only one driving route available if travelling from Highway 101 due to storm damage to a bridge on Clayton McKay Road. Visitors should follow these directions to reach the park:
- From Highway 101, take Exit 4.
- Turn right onto Highway 1 towards Highway 215 East.
- Turn left onto Highway 215 East and follow for 6 km.
- Make a slight turn right onto Highway 14 and follow for 4 km.
- Turn right onto Ashdale Road.
- Turn right again onto Clayton McKay Road and travel 0.5 km to the park entrance.
