Adventure Safely this Summer at Manning Park!

Since resuming operations in June 2020, we have implemented physical distancing and enhanced sanitizing practices, worked with industry leaders to create best practices, and supported local and provincial government health guidelines. We successfully and safely operated both a full summer and winter season, and we are so excited to welcome everyone back this summer.

With the experience and knowledge we have gained this past year, we continue to make the safety of our guests and staff our highest priority.

While visiting the park, please abide by all provincial health and safety guidelines to ensure another successful summer of outdoor adventure!

 

General Safety Practices

For all indoor locations, masks are recommended.

Physical distancing is recommended in all areas. Inside buildings, at the lake, on the trails, and everywhere else. Stay safe and stay 2m apart.

All high-touch surfaces are frequently cleaned and disinfected. Hand sanitizing stations are provided at multiple locations around the resort. 

If possible, please pay by card, not cash to decrease contact.

Employees will undergo daily health screenings and receive appropriate training on company protocols and procedures. Employees are required to wear masks, regularly wash their hands and stay home if sick.

• All of our campgrounds operate under the safety protocols of BC Parks.
• All shared facilities (wash-houses, outhouses, etc.) and high touchpoint areas (garbage cans, handpumps, etc.) are frequently cleaned and disinfected.

The road to the alpine meadows is also open.  Please remember to stay on the trail even if it is snow covered. If you veer around the snow, this promotes trail braiding, which negatively impacts the sub-alpine meadows!

Summer is on and we are ready for you! See you soon on your summer adventures!
