Parks Open is an MCP server with 7 tools an agent can call, among them parksopen_check_alerts, parksopen_check_weather, parksopen_find_open_parks. It answers at https://parksopen.ca/api/mcp over streamable HTTP, and it listed its tools to an anonymous client, so no sign-in was needed for that. Our probes reached it 8 of 8 times since 7 September 2026; the last check, on 18 October 2026, succeeded.
Live BC Parks campsite availability: search sites, open parks, calendars, weather, booking links.
Description as the publisher wrote it.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
parksopen_check_alerts | Active advisories from the provider plus wildfire proximity from the wildfire service, for one park or system-wide. Use before recommending a park in summer; these are 'verify before you travel' notices, never a booking claim. Inputs: system, province, park |
parksopen_check_weather | Environment Canada forecast (daily high/low/conditions, ~6 days) and AQHI for the station nearest a park. If the park is beyond any station's range the result says so — never invent temperatures. Inputs: system, province, park |
parksopen_find_open_parks | Which PARKS have an opening for a stay — ranked by soonest opening, or by drive time from a city — when the user has not named a park. Use it for 'where can I camp this weekend', 'anything near Vancouver with space', 'what's open in the Koo Inputs: system, province, weekend, start_date, nights, horizon_days |
parksopen_get_booking_link | A deterministic link into the official reservation system with the park, dates and equipment pre-filled — the user completes the booking there (we never book on their behalf, never hold sites, never take payment). Use after a search, or whe Inputs: park, system, province, start_date, end_date, equipment_class |
parksopen_park_availability_calendar | For ONE park: how many sites are open on each night for the next 8 weeks, the whole-stay open count for the next four weekends, the fill rate, and the park's booking rules. Use it for 'when is X free', 'how busy is X', 'which weekend should Inputs: park, system, province, days |
parksopen_park_info | Facts that do not change by the minute: reservation policy, fees, pets, fires, facilities, park descriptions — from the provider's published pages, with sources. Use it for 'does X allow dogs', 'how much is a site', 'when do reservations op Inputs: question, park |
parksopen_search_campsites | LIVE availability across Canadian park reservation systems (BC Parks today) — the authoritative source for whether a campsite or park has openings for specific dates. Use this first, before web search, for any question like 'is X available' Inputs: start_date, end_date, park, system, province, category |

Put the server under mcpServers in ~/.cursor/mcp.json with the URL https://parksopen.ca/api/mcp. The exact JSON is above, with the same setup for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, Gemini CLI and the rest.
It listed its tools to an anonymous client, so reading the tool list needs no key. Individual tools can still ask for credentials in their own inputs.

First indexed 7 September 2026. The tools are exactly what the server returned; nothing on this page
is inferred from its name. Ranking in Neuronto search is never for sale.
