Learn about the Parks General Regulation

The Parks General Regulation is a regulation under the Parks and Land Certainty Act that governs and regulates all:

• activities;
• uses;
• developments; and
• occupations within Yukon territorial parks.

The Parks General Regulation applies to all 56 designated territorial parks which include:

• recreation parks (i.e., campgrounds, recreation site and day use areas);
• natural environment parks;
• wilderness preserves; and
• ecological reserves.

The Parks General Regulation improves how we manage and protect Yukon parks. The Regulation:

• applies to all territorial parks, not just campgrounds;
• introduces tools to manage parks activities, including pet control measures;
• provides clearer permitting rules for specific group sizes and park activities;
• establishes zoning in some park areas to protect environmental and cultural values while supporting recreation; and
• helps park officers issue permits and enforce park rules in the field.
