Accessibility information

Accessibility information is available for this park.

Picnic areas

There are a few picnic tables available next to the parking lot. Services are available from April 1 to October 31. The Othello Tunnels (located within the park) are closed during the winter months due to unstable conditions, falling rocks, and ice.

Pit or flush toilets

Pit toilets are near the parking lot and trailhead.

Hiking

A trail through the Othello Tunnels is an easy 3.5km round trip. This trail is part of the Trans Canada Trail and features a flat, gravel surface.

Flashlights are strongly recommended for anyone walking or cycling through the tunnels. Some are long and dark, and the gravel surface underfoot may be uneven due to erosion caused by dripping water.

Fishing

Anyone fishing or angling in British Columbia must have an appropriate licence. Check the British Columbia Freshwater Fishing Regulations Synopsis for water specific regulations.

Pets on leash

Pets are allowed on the hiking trail only and must kept on a leash at all times. You are responsible for their behaviour and must dispose of their excrement. Backcountry areas are not suitable for dogs or other pets due to wildlife issues and the potential for problems with bears.

Cycling

Bicycles must keep to roadways. Bicycle helmets are mandatory in British Columbia. Cyclists please dismount and walk through tunnels. Flashlights are strongly recommended for anyone cycling through the tunnels.

e-Biking

Please note that bicycles with electric assist motors (e-bikes) are permitted on signed or designated trails within Coquihalla Canyon Park, provided they meet the definitions and criteria for e-bike use as outlined in the BC Parks cycling guidelines.
