Cody Caves Provincial Park

Cody Caves Provincial Park in British Columbia’s Central Kootenay region lies about 13 kilometres by road northwest of Ainsworth Hot Springs on Kootenay Lake. Established in July 1966, it was created to protect the Cody Caves and became British Columbia’s first subterranean park. Unlike parks centered on surface scenery, its defining purpose was the preservation of a cave system and the distinctive underground environment associated with it. The park remains significant for that original role, safeguarding the caves and the unusual subterranean setting that gave the park its identity.
