East Pine Park sits near the junction of the East Pine and Murray Rivers in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. BC Parks says it provides fishing, canoeing, and boating opportunities on both rivers.
The park is located 30 kilometres east of Chetwynd on Highway 97.
East Pine is a river-focused BC Parks stop for visitors planning around fishing, cautious paddling, boating, and wildlife observation in the Peace region. The official page emphasizes the meeting of the East Pine and Murray Rivers rather than developed campground facilities.
Paddlers should treat the rivers with care. BC Parks warns that canoeists and kayakers must exercise caution because of swift current and sweepers along the river banks. Fishing is available with the required licence, and pets must be leashed and kept away from beach areas or park buildings.
The park's conservation values include balsam poplar as the dominant forest cover, along with white spruce. Wildlife listed by BC Parks includes moose, white-tailed deer, mule deer, black bear, squirrels, chipmunks, beaver, muskrat, river otters, waterfowl, and shorebirds along the river setting.
Plan around river fishing, careful canoeing or kayaking, boating, wildlife watching, waterfowl and shorebird viewing, riverbank photography, highway-access trip planning, and quiet observation near the East Pine and Murray Rivers junction.
Bring drinking water because potable water is not available. Off-road vehicles, including ATVs, off-road motorcycles, snowmobiles, and side-by-sides, are prohibited, and paddlers should assess current, sweepers, weather, and skill level before launching.
