RVing in Canada

Travel to Canada and Bring your RV

List of helpful information to make your journey safe, fun and interesting.

Map of Canada

Many visitors to Canada travel here in their RV or rent an RV to roam across the country comfortably.

Travel to Canada and enjoy different cultural experiences, attend events that may include a stampede, a winter carnival or a jazz festival.  The scenery will take your breath away and the people will make you welcome.  Each of the 10 provinces is unique and offers something special to its visitors. The Yukon and Northwest Territories are exceptional and the best way to explore them is definitely from the front seat of an RV.

Campgrounds / Parks in Canada

Visit Campgrounds of Canada (it’s free)

Highways / Roads in Canada

Highways are well maintained and well marked.  Maps are available at most service stations and most towns and cities have a tourist information centre that will provide you with information about campgrounds, shopping, and local events.

Canadian Weather

The weather varies depending upon the area and time of the year you visit.  Most RVers travel to Canada in the spring, summer and fall.  However, in some parts of the country, specifically the south coast of BC many RVers spend the winter enjoying the temperate climate.

Shopping in Canada

Shopping is available everywhere and most products that are found in the United States are also found in Canada.  The currency is the Canadian dollar and most merchants will exchange foreign monies at that days rate but it is advised that you visit a local bank to get the best rates or use an ATM machine, which you will find absolutely everywhere.

Wi-Fi in Canada

Wi-Fi is easy to find, especially in RV Parks, coffee shops, libraries or hotspots around the country.

Canada is Big!

    We are full time RV’rs this is the 4th year workamping. One thing to remember when workamping you are not covered by any insurance or workers conp like in Canada and some will ask you to singe off and you will be responsible for your self and property. you may be handy with electrical but your not covered.

    1. Interesting. I actually hadn’t thought of that – assumed you would be covered. Are you American workampers?
