The biggest surprise for us visiting Kianuko Provincial Park, was how good the roads were. We got there via km 25 after turning off highway 3 at Kitchener.
we also saw lots of wildlife, incredible views and lots
of colors in the sky as the sun went down.
There was what
i believe to be a trappers cabin.
Once we were 5 kms away from Kitchener. we never saw another car.
Tranquility and rugged nature at its finest.
Beautiful and remote provincial park accessed from the south along a wide easy trail that starts 2 km outside the park boundary. Didn't get too far into the park, so the trail may become more difficult as you go in. Looks like it would be a great multi-day trek to get to Haystack Mountain/Sanca at the north end. Sadly too late this year to find out now.
To get to the trailhead take Goat River Forest Service Road from Kitchener, at the 20-21 KM marker you'll cross the bridge over Kianuko Creek and hit a fork. Turn left, continuing to the 25 KM mark. You'll see the Guiding Cabin & trail kiosk on your right. Congratulations. You've arrived!
