Monkman Provincial Park

Monkman Provincial Park protects a dramatic section of northeastern British Columbia that includes Kinuseo Falls, Monkman Lake, Monkman Pass, limestone country along the Murray River and Monkman Creek, and later-added areas around Limestone Lakes and Upper Fontiniko Creek valley. Long sought for protection, the area became a provincial park in 1981 after earlier proposals for a larger reserve faced development concerns. Its landscapes feature waterfalls, caves, gorges, cliffs, and karst formations, while old travel routes through Monkman Pass preserve the story of a once-promoted highway corridor. Improved road and trail access later made the park’s scenery and historic routes more widely reachable.
