Tatlatui Provincial Park, Nature reserve in Peace River Regional District, Canada.
Tatlatui Provincial Park is a large protected area in the Peace River region spanning 105,829 hectares of wilderness. The landscape features rivers, glacial valleys, and mountain peaks that rise above 2,372 meters in elevation.
The territory was first documented by non-Indigenous explorer John Finlay in 1797, followed by Samuel Black's expedition in 1824. These early explorations contributed to European knowledge of this remote region.
The name Thutade Lake comes from a local Athapaskan language and means "long and slender lake." This naming reflects how Indigenous peoples of the region described the water body's distinctive shape.
Access to the park requires floatplane transportation, as the nearest major highway stands over 180 kilometers away from the park boundaries. Visitors should plan accordingly since flying is the only practical way to reach this location.
The park contains water sources that form the Firesteel River headwaters, which flows through multiple waterways before reaching the Arctic Ocean. This continuous water system links the remote mountain wilderness to distant coastal regions.
