Interactive maps showing every parcel of huntable Crown land across Canada. Know exactly where you can and can't hunt — before you leave home.
Crown land is owned by the provincial or federal Crown. Much of it is huntable with a valid licence, but parks, preserves, and restricted designations are not. Private land always requires permission. Use the province pages below, or jump to a town-level guide, to see land types and access rules for your hunt area.

In most provinces, hunting is allowed on general-use Crown land with a valid hunting licence and any required tags. You do not need landowner permission for those parcels, but parks, wildlife preserves, Enhanced Management Areas, and posted industrial sites often prohibit hunting. Always confirm the parcel type on the provincial Crown land atlas or in HuntScout.
Many provinces allow temporary camping on general-use Crown land, but rules vary by province and by land-use designation. Some areas ban camping, restrict fires, or require free-use permits. Check the provincial Crown land use policies for your hunt area before planning an overnight stay.
In Canada, Crown land is land owned by the provincial or federal Crown. Much of it is open for hunting under general-use rules, but not all of it — parks, reserves, and restricted designations are excluded. “Public land” is a broader everyday phrase; hunters should always check the specific land class, not assume every green polygon on a map is huntable.
