Fort George Canyon Provincial Park, Provincial park in Regional District of Fraser-Fort George, Canada.

Fort George Canyon Provincial Park spans 178 hectares across two sections divided by the Fraser River, featuring natural trails and dense forest regions.

Until 1914, the Fraser River served as the main transportation route through this region, with Fort George Canyon presenting navigation challenges for sternwheel boats.

The park contains traditional Indigenous fishing grounds along the Fraser River, designated as a Canadian Heritage River for its ecological and historical value.

Access to the park requires taking Highway 16 West via Blackwater Road, followed by a 4.8-kilometer trail starting from West Lake Road.

The park preserves a historic winch site used by paddle-wheel boats in the early 1900s to navigate through the dangerous canyon waters.
