Beautiful mountain snowy❄️ landscape and snow❄️ covered trees... the park offers breathtaking picturesque winter landscapes that are hard to beat... a blanket of snow settles on Mount Revelstoke National Park by mid-November annually, making it a great destination for a variety of winter recreation options... known as a must-visit destination for avid skiers and snowboarders... Revelstoke 🏔 has world class snowmobiling, heli and cat skiing and some of the best backcountry skiing anywhere... most winter trails are on the lower slopes of Mount Revelstoke... Thanks a lot Glenn!

Mount Revelstoke National Park sits in the middle of British Columbia in the Selkirk Mountains near the city of Revelstoke.

The park is relatively small for a national park, covering 260 km2 and was founded in 1914.

One of the most striking features of Mount Revelstoke National Park and the Columbia Mountain Range is that it is home to the world's only inland temperate rainforest.

It is home to several large mammals, notably black bears, grizzlies, woodland caribou and mountain goats. Other mammals include hoary marmots, pikas, Columbian ground squirrels, and several species of bats.
