Okanagan Mountain Provincial Park

Nature
Okanagan Mountain Provincial Park is a large protected area on the east side of Okanagan Lake in British Columbia, south of Kelowna and opposite Peachland. Centered on Okanagan Mountain, it is one of the larger parks in the region and remains difficult to access, with most travel limited to foot, horseback, bicycle, or boat. Its rugged uplands, shoreline, backcountry trails, campsites, and marine camp areas support recreation as well as hunting. The park shelters diverse wildlife, including large mammals, notable small species, reptiles, and birds. Private land donations helped expand it, and a major 2003 wildfire burned most of the park, shaping its landscape and access for years.
