Overview ** PLEASE READ IMPORTANT INFORMATION BELOW TO UNDERSTAND HOW TO CAMP AT VOYAGEURS NATIONAL PARK ** All frontcountry and backcountry campsites require travel by private watercraft or water taxi to access. Click on any campsite name when searching sites to view boating distances. You can type in a specific campsite number or campsite/lake name when searching site availability. Voyageurs National Park has 143 frontcountry, 14 backcountry, and 2 primitive campsites for visitors wanting an authentic Northwoods camping experience. PRIMITIVE CAMPSITES (Red Pine & Blueberry Ridge) are the only campsites that are located on the mainland and DO NOT require a boat to access. They are hike-in sites along the Kab-Ash Trail and are equipped only with fire rings and cleared areas for tents. Leave No Trace Principles apply in these areas. FRONTCOUNTRY CAMPSITES are located on the large lakes (Rainy, Kabetogama, Namakan, Sandpoint). You can boat directly to them from any park visitor center boat ramp. They offer fire rings, tent pads, picnic tables, bear lockers for safe food storage, and outdoor privies.
