King George VI Provincial Park, Provincial park near Trail, Canada.

King George VI Provincial Park spans 162 acres along Highway 22, featuring stands of black cottonwood trees and natural wetlands in British Columbia.

The provincial park was established by Order in Council on May 3, 1937, to commemorate the coronation of King George VI of England.

The local Rossland Society for Environmental Education proposed renaming the park to p̓aʔáx, reflecting the Sinixt word for healing.

The park functions as a day-use rest stop without camping facilities, enabling visitors to observe wildlife and engage in birdwatching activities.

The park supports endangered plant species and provides nesting habitats for barred owls, pileated woodpeckers, and red-naped sapsuckers within its boundaries.
