Beaumont Provincial Park

Beaumont Provincial Park is a protected area in the Bulkley-Nechako region that preserves dense forest within the Sub-Boreal Spruce ecosystem. Spruce and fir trees cover the park, with hiking trails, camping facilities, and wildlife viewing areas woven throughout its landscape.

The park was established in 1960 as part of British Columbia's early commitment to protecting natural landscapes. Its creation marked an important moment in recognizing forest ecosystems as worthy of long-term preservation.

The land here belongs to the Dakelh First Nations, who have maintained their connection to this region for countless generations. This indigenous presence shapes how the park is understood and used today.

The park is easily accessible from regional highways and offers several entry points for visitors. Plan your visit during daylight hours when trails and facilities are most accessible and wildlife watching is more rewarding.

The park holds a special protected status that requires it to meet strict ecological standards while remaining open for recreation. This balance between preservation and public access makes it a model for how conservation areas can work.
