About this park
Weewanie Hot Springs Park was designated as a park on May 20, 2004 following recommendations from the Kalum Land and Resource Management Plan. The park is within the traditional territory of the Haisla First Nation. The bay was used in the past for logging. Remains of the old log landing site, logging road and an old steam donkey engine can be found on shore at the end of the bay.
The bath house building was built in May 1992 by a group of volunteers sponsored by Northern Aquanauts scuba Dive Club and donations from businesses in Kitimat. Prior to being designated as a Provincial Park in 2004, Weewanie Hot Springs was a BC Forest Service Recreation Site maintained by the Kalum Forest District out of Terrace.
