Eskers Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada. The park covers approximately 4,044 hectares (40.44 km²; 15.61 sq mi) and was created in 1987 and is located west of Nukko Lake, which lies northwest of the city of Prince George. The park protects an area of the 40-kilometre (25 mi) Stuart River Eskers Complex. Eskers are winding ridges of gravel formed by glaciers which once covered the British Columbia Interior.
