Netalzul Meadows Park is in the Harold-Price watershed about 50 kilometres north of Smithers. BC Parks says access is not easy: the Upper Fulton 3000 Forest Service Road off Babine Lake Road involves about 140 kilometres of mostly unpaved, narrow roads from Highway 16.
There are no established trails into the park. Netalzul Meadows became a protected area in 1996. Smithers is the closest named community.
Netalzul Meadows protects an unusual wet meadow complex, a 100-metre waterfall, rare plant species, and under-represented moist sub-boreal spruce ecosystems. BC Parks also highlights a calciphytic spray zone at the waterfall that supports rare plants, including the provincially rare Aster-Peavine Meadow plant community. It is within Wet'suwet'en and Ned'u'ten traditional territory.
The park offers wildlife viewing, nature study, waterfall viewing, hunting, and hiking, but it is remote and rough. Game trails provide some hiking opportunities within the meadow and down to the waterfall, and map-and-compass or GPS experience is essential. Bears, moose, wolves, and deer all frequent the area.
Hike game trails if prepared, view the 100-metre waterfall, watch birds and wildlife, study wet meadow and rare plant habitat, hunt during open seasons, and photograph the Harold-Price watershed landscape.
Prime bear habitat and thick low-visibility brush increase the chance of bear encounters, so make noise while hiking. There are no maintained trails into the park. Bring navigation, water, emergency supplies, and weather gear, expect long rough access, and avoid trampling wet meadow or rare plant areas.
