Nickel Plate Provincial Park

Nature
Nickel Plate Provincial Park in British Columbia occupies the northeast corner of Nickel Plate Lake in the Similkameen District, about 29 kilometres northeast of Hedley near Apex Ski Resort. Formerly called Clearwater Park, it serves as a year-round recreation area focused on lake activities and low-impact camping. Visitors use sandy lakeside beaches, launch boats from a rough gravel access point near the dam, and enjoy hiking, fishing, paddling, canoeing, and kayaking in warmer seasons. In winter, snow-based recreation becomes important, especially at the Nickel Plate Nordic Centre, whose 39 kilometres of groomed and track-set trails make the park a notable Nordic skiing destination.
