Akamina-Kishinena Provincial Park
Akamina-Kishinena Provincial Park, Provincial park in East Kootenay, Canada
The park encompasses 10,921 hectares of high peaks and broad forested valleys within the watershed of the Flathead River in British Columbia.
The Kootenai people traveled through South Kootenay Pass to connect with the Great Plains for trading and buffalo hunting before European settlement.
The area forms part of the Crown of the Continent ecosystem, connecting Waterton Lakes National Park in Alberta with Glacier National Park in Montana.
Visitors can access the park through forest roads at the western edge or hiking trails from Waterton Lakes National Park through Akamina Pass.
The park contains some of the oldest rock formations in the Canadian Rockies, with limestone deposits dating back approximately 1.5 billion years.
