Herald Provincial Park
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Herald Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada.
Herald Park is located on the north shore of the Salmon Arm of Shuswap Lake, in the southern interior of BC. The park is approximately 30 minutes north east of the city of Salmon Arm (by road). Herald Park contains a popular camping area, as well as a day use/picnic area. Large pebble beaches stretch along the southern boundary of the park. Walking and hiking trails exist throughout the park, including an easy 10 minute hike to the spectacular Margaret Falls.
The site of Herald Park was originally settled by the Herald family at the turn of the century and remained a family farm until the 1970's. The land was then turned over to the Provincial Government with the exception of the "homesite", where Ms. Jesse Herald continued to reside until her death.
