Safety and guidelines

We rarely head out for an outdoor adventure with the expectation that something will go wrong. Most of the time everything will be fine, but, sometimes the unexpected happens. To prevent getting into a dangerous situation, it’s important that you are well informed and prepared every time you head out.

Safety is everyone’s responsibility. At Parks Canada, we do our part to help you have a safe visit by assessing risks, managing hazards, and sharing important safety information. You can do your part by researching and preparing in advance, so that you can make the best decisions and have a safe visit to the park. Make sure you are fully prepared for whatever activities you choose to participate in so you can have a safe, enjoyable and memorable visit. Please read through these webpages, or stop at our visitor centre to speak with park staff for the most up-to-date information.

If you encounter a hazard at any of our facilities please let us know at 613-923-5261 or pc.pnmille-iles-thousandislandsnp.pc@canada.ca. Please note that park facilities are not open or actively maintained after Thanksgiving until the park reopens for the Victoria Day long weekend in May.
