Prophet River Hot Springs Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada. Established high in the Muskwa Ranges, on the course of the Prophet River, it is part of the larger Muskwa-Kechika Management Area.[1]
The wilderness park covers 457 acres (185 hectares). The hot mineral springs have formed a tufa mound. The park can only be reached by hiking or horseback; there is no road access available.[2]
The park is located within a tract of land that is traditionally used by Treaty 8 First Nations people. Within the park boundaries an archaeological site exists.[3]
