Plan for Parks engagement

Albertans were able to provide input that helped us develop a new Plan for Parks.

Overview

We heard from Albertans on the new Plan for Parks. The Plan for Parks is the enduring strategic direction for recreation and conservation of sites managed under the Provincial Parks Act. This includes provincial parks, provincial recreation areas and wildland provincial parks.

The engagement was completed in phases. The first phase collected feedback from Albertans in summer 2024 on their perspectives, priorities, and needs to inform the creation of the new draft Plan for Parks. The second phase of engagement in spring 2025 asked for input on the draft plan.
