ParksNL appreciates the ongoing cooperation of visitors in following the temporary wildfire mitigation measures within provincial parks.

As conditions improve across the province and off-road vehicle restrictions on forested land are lifted, ParksNL is also reinstating permissions for propane fire pits.

While these restrictions are being eased, ParksNL is committed to fire safety and encourages visitors to exercise caution in all activities.

Please note that restrictions regarding generators and propane fire pits continue to apply and are as follows:

• Generators and propane fire pits must never be left unattended.
• Equipment should only be used on designated, hardened surfaces within campsites and maintained a safe distance from vegetation, flammable materials and fuels.

Disposal of cigarette butts should continue in water-filled vessels, and considerate behavior such as refraining from smoking in shared areas is appreciated. Smoking on trails is always discouraged for safety reasons.

ParksNL reserves the right to enact temporary restrictions on any activity that is deemed a nuisance or hazard to public safety.
