Zone III – Natural Environment (3% of the park)
Zone III areas facilitate visitor experience of the park’s natural and cultural heritage through outdoor recreational activities that require minimal services and facilities of a rustic nature. Zone III applies to areas where visitor use requires facilities that exceed the acceptable standards for Zone II. Remote, designated campgrounds in the park, if established, will be designated as Zone III because of the requirement for a basic level of facilities. This intermediate level zone is applied to portions of the water surfaces of Lake Claire and Lake Mamawi in the Peace-Athabasca Delta and the corridor from the Peace River to the Sweetgrass station area on the north margins of the Delta. Zone III provides for controlled motorized access.
4. The Karst Landscape: The assemblage of karst features in the Needle Lake area include the largest sinkholes in the park. This area is the best representation of a widespread and highly significant park landscape.
