Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park, Provincial park and natural environment reserve in Nipissing District, Canada.

Located at the confluence of Mattawa and Amable-du-Fond River systems, Samuel de Champlain Provincial Park encompasses 2,550 hectares of forests and waterways.

The park, established in 1967, lies along the historic fur trade route of the Mattawa River where French explorer Samuel de Champlain traveled in 1615.

The Voyageur Heritage Centre within the park presents exhibits about the fur trade history and displays artifacts connected to the Mattawa River region.

The park operates from May to October, offering camping facilities, four hiking trails of varying difficulty levels, and supervised swimming areas.

The Canadian Ecology Centre inside the park functions as an educational facility dedicated to teaching sustainable forestry practices through hands-on programs.
