There are plenty of camping sites within Banff National Park - the hardest part of your camping trip may be determining just where you want to pitch a tent! During peak season, you can choose from 2,468 sites within 13 campgrounds throughout the park, all offering a variety of services. You're welcome to make reservations before your arrival (the busiest times at the campground are June through September), but if you decide to wing it, keep in mind that sites are made available on a first-come, first-served basis. Just as amenities and opening dates vary at each campground, so do the fees associated with them. Check the website for a current schedule and [rate fee structure](http://www.pc.gc.ca/eng/pn-np/ab/banff/activ/camping.aspx).
