Campers must have a camping permit and must camp in designated Nova Scotia Provincial Parks campground sites. Pets are allowed in the parks, but must be kept under control at all times, on a leash no longer than 2.5 metres (6 feet), including at swimming areas. Pets are not permitted in public structures at the park or in any area designated as pet free. Public structures include washrooms, vault toilets, cooking shelters, change houses, and administrative and program buildings.
