• Location Map

• History - In 1996 the Regional Protected Area Team identified the popular fishing destination Rainbow Alley as an Area of Interest for its significant recreational opportunities. In 1999, with recommendation from the Bulkley Land and Resource Management Plan, Rainbow Alley was designated as a Class A provincial park.
• Cultural Heritage - Rainbow Alley Park lies within the asserted traditional territory of the Ned’u’ten people, and approximately 1km north of the First Nations community of Wud’at. The Ned’u’ten have a long history of use and continue to use the area for sustenance fishing and trapping.
• Conservation - Rainbow Alley Park lies within the Babine Uplands Ecosection, protecting wetland and forest habitat.
• Wildlife - As part of the Babine River corridor, Rainbow Alley contributes to habitat for many mammals, including grizzly bears, a species of special concern in this landscape unit. The park also protects an area used by the blue-listed American bittern for breeding. Provincially significant populations of rainbow trout, steelhead and sockeye are found in Rainbow Alley, along with a host of other fish species including pink and coho salmon.
