Rolley Lake Provincial Park, Provincial park in Fraser Valley Regional District, Canada
Rolley Lake Provincial Park is a nature reserve with a circular lake surrounded by second-growth coniferous forest and multiple walking trails. The terrain features forested slopes leading down to the water, with pathways suitable for different experience levels.
The territory was originally home to the Sto:lo people before James and Fanny Rolley established their homestead in 1888. Logging operations later shaped the landscape until the area was eventually protected as a provincial park.
The lake and surrounding forest hold deep meaning for the Sto:lo people, whose presence shaped this land long before European settlement arrived. Today, visitors can learn about these connections through the park's educational efforts and cultural recognition.
The park offers around 64 campsites with modern amenities including hot showers and flush toilets, requiring advance booking. Visit outside peak summer months for a more comfortable experience and better availability of sites.
The location experiences dramatic temperature swings between freezing winters and hot summers, with heavy rainfall occurring year-round. These harsh conditions shape the forest and influence which species thrive in this environment.
