Choquette Hot Springs Provincial Park, Provincial park in Stikine Region, Canada.
Choquette Hot Springs Provincial Park is a protected area in the Stikine Region that features over 15 natural hot springs emerging from granitic rocks along the valley wall beside the Stikine River. These thermal features form from natural geological processes and create a distinctive landscape within the park.
The park gained official protection status in 2001 to preserve the hot springs and their surroundings along the Stikine River. This designation marked recognition of both the environmental value and the importance of the land to the people who call it home.
The hot springs hold deep meaning for the Tahltan First Nation, who have used these waters for generations. Visitors can feel how this place remains connected to the practices and lands of the local people.
The park is accessible only by boat along the Stikine River or by helicopter, which means planning ahead is essential. The remote location and limited transportation options mean that visits require coordination and advance arrangements.
Several of the thermal springs reach temperatures between 50 and 60 degrees Celsius and are only accessible when water levels permit. These natural conditions create an unpredictable experience that makes each visit distinct.
