Algonquin Park Backcountry Camping Closure - April 1 to May 1, 2025.
Ontario Parks has closed all backcountry camping (including canoeing, backpacking, and winter camping) from April 1 to May 1, 2025. Developed camping and day use are still possible during this time.
Algonquin Park's backcountry reopens to camping on May 2, 2025.

No included statement on the link this year about “backcountry may reopen earlier if conditions permit”.
Does this mean the park is establishing a fixed b/c reopen date to give the park a full month of “rest” regardless of actual weather conditions?

I doubt they’d make that kind of change. That being said, there’s nothing in the long term forecast to give much hope for an April opening at the moment.
