You weren’t the only one to grab your tent this summer to get lost in one of Nova Scotia’s provincial parks.
The province says we welcomed a record number of visitors to our campgrounds.
“Provincial campgrounds logged 91,262 overnight stays, which represents a 13 per cent increase over the shorter camping season in 2020,” a news release says.
The province says 86 per cent of campers were from Nova Scotia, while 13 per cent came from other parts of Canada.
Roughly one per cent stopped by from the United States.
More than one million people camped and visited day-use parks.
Nova Scotia features 20 camping parks and 109 day-use and beach parks.
