We saved you a seat!
Parks Canada has placed over 200 red Adirondack chairs in peaceful and scenic locations throughout many of the country’s most unique and treasured places, including three sets of two chairs found here at Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Sites.
Grab a friend, go for a walk then relax and snap a selfie on one of our red chairs. Each location immerses you in the landscape or allows you to discover its history.
How to find the red chairs
The red chairs are for you to discover. While some chairs are easy to find, others require more of an adventure.

Parks Canada’s red chairs: where it all started
In 2011, our friends at Gros Morne National Park came up with the idea to place sets of Adirondack chairs in lesser-known, stunning locations around the park, inviting visitors to enjoy and share on social media. Today, the iconic red chairs can be found in over 100 locations administered by Parks Canada.
The adventure doesn't end at Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Sites! Parks Canada has installed red chairs in the most beautiful landscapes in the country, including those featured in Coastal British Columbia’s other national park reserves and historic sites.
