Champion Lakes Provincial Park, Provincial park in West Kootenay region, Canada
Champion Lakes Provincial Park spans 1,452 hectares of land featuring multiple connected lakes surrounded by mature forests in British Columbia.
The park boundaries underwent two notable modifications since its establishment in 1955, first reducing to 1,245 hectares in 2000 and expanding to current size in 2004.
Local communities from the Lower Columbia region gather at the third lake's day-use areas for swimming and recreational activities throughout summer months.
The park entrance lies 8 kilometers east of Fruitvale along Highway 3B, followed by a 10-kilometer northern route on a secondary road.
The Beaver Valley Cross-Country Ski Club maintains an extensive network of Nordic ski trails during winter, while propeller boats remain prohibited on park lakes.
