Tent camping is a popular way to experience the park.
Sleep under the stars in one of over 200 designated campsites in Voyageurs National Park. Be serenaded by loons, and listen for the chance to hear the howl of a wolf.
You need a boat to camp in the park. All campsites are accessible by water only.
A free permit is required for overnight stays in the park. You can get your permit at a park visitor center during regular business hours or self-register at one of the permit stations located near all park boat launch facilities.
Most campsites in the park are available only on a "first-come, first-served" basis, with the exception of two designated which may be reserved (fee applies).
There are drive-up campsites located just outside of the park at the Woodenfrog and Ash River state forest campgrounds. Call 218-365-7229 for more information.
Camping in Voyageurs National Park is limited to 14 days at a specific site between May 15th and September 15th, and a maximum of 30 days in a calendar year.
