Welcome to the Provincial
Parks of the Central, South & Boundary Regions of the
Okanagan in beautiful British Columbia Canada! |

Above the
Okanagan lakeshore are over 10,000 hectares of rugged
landscape with mountain lakes, grasslands and spruce-fir
forests accessible only on foot, horseback or bicycle.
Trails and rustic campsites are the only facilities in
this area of the wilderness. A wonderful setting for
hikers and a boater’s paradise.
