Elephant Hill Provincial Park

Elephant Hill Provincial Park encompasses 968 hectares of dry grasslands, featuring natural habitats for rattlesnakes, mule deer, and sharp-tailed grouse populations.

The park received its designation as a protected area in 1996 following recommendations from the Kamloops Land and Resource Management Plan.

First Nations communities maintain strong connections to this territory, collaborating with BC Parks to integrate their traditions into park management practices.

Access to the park requires following the Trans-Canada Highway near Cache Creek, with restricted vehicle traffic except for the communication facilities road.

The park contains both ungrazed and minimally grazed grasslands in British Columbia's driest conditions, supporting numerous rare plant and animal species.
