Mount Revelstoke National Park, National park in Columbia-Shuswap Regional District, Canada.

Mount Revelstoke National Park covers 260 km² in the Selkirk Mountains east of Revelstoke, British Columbia. A 26 km road climbs through three vegetation zones to a plateau just below the 1,860 m summit, where a fire lookout stands. Trails lead from the plateau to Miller Lake, a kettle lake, and Eva Lake, which has basic campsites. Mount Inverness, at 2,651 m, is the park's highest point.

Local mountaineering and skiing clubs, municipal officials and the Progress Club built the first summit trail in 1910; the park was established in 1914, later than Banff, Yoho and Glacier. In 1915 an internment camp held over 200 men, mostly from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, who worked on the summit road until cold weather halted them. The road was completed in 1927 and boundaries were extended toward Revelstoke in 1920.

The park's creation came from local initiative: Revelstoke's mountaineering and skiing clubs, municipal officials and the Progress Club built the first summit trail in 1910. Ski jumping began here in 1915, and the Nels Nelsen Historic Area recalls the Norwegian immigrant who founded the town's ski club in 1914 and set jumping records on the hill.

The Meadows in the Sky Parkway is a 26-kilometre paved road from the Trans-Canada Highway to the summit plateau. It is open only during the snow-free months, typically July to September. The parkway climbs through three vegetation zones, and short trails leave from the road and the top.

The forest shelters an isolated population of banana slugs, marking the easternmost point of their range in North America. These colorful creatures are normally found in the rainier coastal regions of the west.
