Manning Provincial Park:
Established on June 17, 1941, this summer will mark the 75th anniversary of E. C. Manning Provincial Park, named in honour of Ernest Callaway Manning, Chief Forester for the province from 1936 to 1941. Known locally as Manning Park, this is the place where outdoor enthusiasts gather and is one of the most popular parks in the province.
Location: British Columbia, Canada
Area: 70,844 ha (175,060 acres)
Special Notes:
- The park has a large variety of walking/hiking trails that range anywhere from a 15 minute walk up to a 6 day hike. For your own safety and the preservation of the park, obey posted signs and keep to designated trails. Shortcutting trails destroys plant life and soil structure.
- During the winter season, all trails are closed for hiking due to snow.
- The plants in this park are susceptible to winds, rain, extended periods of dry weather, heavy snow fall and a very short growing season. For this reason we ask that you and your pets stay on the trails, don’t trample or pick the flora.
- Important # Manning Provincial Park does not have cell service, the nearest public phones are at Manning Park Resort located on Highway #3.
