Located on the shores of Okanagan Lake, Fintry Provincial Park is rich with history. Formerly the Fintry Estate—one of the valley’s earliest pioneer settlements—park visitors today can camp amongst the old growth cottonwoods, enjoy the sandy beaches, tour the historical buildings, or explore the scenic waterfalls and deep pools of Shorts Creek Canyon.

Fintry is an asymmetrical triangle shawl, knit tip to end. An elegant lace pattern represents the cascading waterfalls and old growth cottonwood forests of Fintry Provincial Park.
