Fintry Provincial Park and Protected Area, Provincial park on Okanagan Lake, British Columbia

The park spans 360 hectares along Okanagan Lake, featuring mountains, deep canyons, waterfalls, and pools formed by Shorts Creek.

Captain James Dun-Waters purchased the estate in 1909 and developed agricultural practices while constructing buildings that remain standing today.

The Friends of Fintry Park Society maintains historical structures and organizes educational programs about the regional heritage and ecosystem.

The park contains 158 vehicle-accessible camping sites, available from March to October, with reservations required through the BC Parks system.

An octagonal dairy barn from the early 1900s stands preserved within the park, representing innovative agricultural architecture of that period.
