Stawamus Chief Provincial Park, Provincial park near Squamish, Canada.
The park features a 710-meter granite monolith rising directly from the Sea to Sky Highway, with three distinct peaks offering different hiking routes.
Created in 1997, the park protects 530 hectares of forest, granite formations, and wildlife habitats in British Columbia's coastal mountain range.
The First Nations village of St-a-wamus provided the name for this natural area, carrying forward the indigenous connection to the territory.

The granite cliffs within the park provide nesting grounds for peregrine falcons while offering numerous climbing routes across multiple rock faces.
