Atlin/A Téix'gi Aan Tlein Provincial Park
Atlin/A Téix'gi Aan Tlein Provincial Park, Provincial park in northwestern British Columbia, Canada
The park encompasses 3,011 square kilometers of mountainous terrain, including portions of the Juneau Icefield and the southern third of Atlin Lake.
The establishment of the park in 1973 resulted from environmental concerns over a proposed hydroelectric project that would divert water from Atlin Lake.
The Taku River Tlingit First Nation maintains strong connections to the land, with archaeological evidence at 40 sites confirming their extended presence.
Visitors must arrive by boat or floatplane as the park lacks road access, and should bring all necessary supplies due to the absence of facilities.
The park contains 23 named mountains, with Mount Nesselrode reaching 2,444 meters as the highest peak within its boundaries.
