Sasquatch Provincial Park, Provincial park in Kent, British Columbia, Canada
Sasquatch Provincial Park is a nature reserve situated in mountainous terrain with three lakes, forests, and wetlands located north of Harrison Hot Springs. The area covers approximately 1,200 hectares and contains diverse ecosystems throughout its landscape.
The area began as Green Point Park, a small 20-hectare reserve established in 1959, before being redesignated in 1968 as the park it is known as today. This transition reflected growing efforts to protect the expanding landscape and its natural features.
The name comes from the Halkomelem language of the Salish people, honoring the deep roots of Indigenous inhabitants who have called this land home for countless generations.
The park has well-maintained facilities for outdoor activities with camping areas, hiking trails, swimming spots, and boat access around the three lakes. Most areas are accessible with varying levels of difficulty depending on the season and trail conditions.
The waters support a diverse range of fish including sturgeon and trout, while the forests home mountain goats, bears, and elk. This mix of aquatic and forest habitats makes the park a place where you can encounter different wildlife throughout your visit.
