Elk Falls Provincial Park, Nature reserve and provincial park in Strathcona Regional District, Canada
Located on Vancouver Island, Elk Falls Provincial Park encompasses several forest types and a 25-meter waterfall that drops into a canyon.
The regional government of British Columbia established the park in 1940 as part of a plan to create protected areas for conservation.
Indigenous communities maintained deep connections with the lands of Elk Falls Provincial Park, influencing the management practices and educational programs.
The park offers multiple hiking trails of various difficulty levels, designated camping areas with facilities, and fishing opportunities at nearby Buttle Lake.
The park contains populations of western redcedar, Douglas fir, and mountain hemlock trees that support black bears and cougars in their natural habitat.
