Chasm Park

A Spectacular Canyon Landscape to Explore

The park conserves forests of ponderosa pine at the northern limit of its range, and diverse low elevation lakes and marshes. The uplands, marshes, and lakes are rich ecosystems supporting abundant wildlife. 

Chasm Park protects the unique river canyon of the Chasm Creek Valley and part of the Bonaparte River Valley. In 1995, the park was recommended for expansion through the Cariboo Chilcotin Land-Use Plan. It was enlarged from 141 hectares to 3,067 hectares to protect more of the area’s colourful geological formations and ponderosa pine forests.

The unique features of Chasm Park offer hiking opportunities and spectacular backdrops for the avid photographer. Facilities include a pull out viewing area and a larger parking area with a toilet.
