Mount Revelstoke National Park, park, southeastern British Columbia, Canada, occupying the western slope of the Selkirk Mountains, above the city of Revelstoke, which lies at the junction of the Columbia and Illecillewaet rivers. Established in 1914, it covers an area of 100 sq mi (260 sq km). An 18-mi- (29-km-) long road leads from the Trans-Canada Highway to the summit of Mt. Revelstoke (6,375 ft [1,943 m]), which affords a spectacular view of three mountain ranges (Monashee, Selkirk, Purcell).
