Parks Canada Closes Backcountry At Kejimkujik National Park

Parks Canada has closed the backcountry of Kejimkujik National Park and National Historic Site until further notice.

The closure is in support of the Department of Natural Resources travel restrictions to reduce the risk of wildfires across Nova Scotia.

Two fires continue to burn in Maitland Bridge and Seven Mile Lake areas.

Parks Canada says safety is their first priority.

There continues to be no immediate risk of forest fires at Keji.

Kejimkujik frontcountry – Jeremys Bay and Jim Charles Group Campground – remains open.

Parks Canada will issue full refunds for all visitors planning to stay in the backcountry.

Full details can be found below.
