Spruce Lake Protected Area

The protected area encompasses 71,347 hectares of diverse landscapes, including forests, mountains, and lakes north of Vancouver in British Columbia.

Established as a protected area in 2001 and designated as a Provincial Park in 2004, following preservationist efforts dating back to the 1930s.

The region served as traditional hunting grounds for Lakes Lillooet and Tsilhqot'in peoples, who established a peace agreement in the early 19th century.

Multiple hiking trails connect to Taseko Lake and Chilko Lake, with walk-in wilderness camping sites available throughout the protected area.

The park provides essential habitat for numerous wildlife species, including grizzly bears, California bighorn sheep, and wolverines in their natural environment.
