West of Campbell River, the Park is near the middle of Vancouver Island.
Tourism Mount Washington offers a wide choice of accommodation for families and groups looking to hike in Strathcona Park. The Paradise Meadows trail head is located at Mount Washington's Raven Lodge allowing visitors to walk from their fully self contained on mountain accommodation to the trail head to access wheelchair accessible boardwalk trails through alpine meadows, day hikes or multi-day hikes through BC's oldest Provincial Park. http://www.tourismmountwashington.com
Along the Flower Ridge Trail there are isolated pads in the wooded area at the edge of the ridge, but about an hour farther on there is a barren area with approximately five pads on the edge of a cliff with an impressive panoramic view. Some large rocks have been collected near the pads to hold down tent corners as the dirt is not deep enough for stakes and there is no shelter from wind (so please don't throw them off the cliff). The sparse trees are very stunted so animals might be deterred by hanging food off the cliff.
Fires are not allowed in the backcountry.
