Cathedral Provincial Park

 
5 km (3 mi.) before it reaches Keremeos the 24 km (15 mi.) approach road turns off along the Ashnola River to the Cathedral Provincial Park. This untamed mountain wilderness on the border with Washington USA, with its deep-blue lakes, steep peaks more than 2000 m (6600 ft) high, imposing rock formations and Alpine-like meadows is particularly attractive to those keen on "the great outdoors".

Cathedral Provincial Park in the Okanagan Mountain Range, covering some 330 sq.

Must-see attractions nearby:
km (205 sq. mi.), is the area between the thick, damp forests of the Cascade Mountains and the arid Okanagan Valley. When walking through it the visitor can observe deer, mountain-goats or Californian thick-horned sheep, as well as marmot. The center of the park is the area surrounding the charming Cathedral Lakes; note, however, that it is not accessible by private car - only all-wheel drive vehicles can cope with the rough road, and walkers and guests of the Cathedral Lakes Resort by Quiniscoe Lake, which is not run by the parks authority, will be collected and driven there.
