BC ParksBC Parks

Set on the Bonaparte Plateau, a huge mid-elevation plateau lake setting, with zero roads. There is hiking canoeing, wildlife viewing, hunting, and adventure tourism which allow for high amounts of wilderness recreation. Additionally, there are wild fish stocks and the ability to fly fish in one of our four fly fishing resorts. There are many trails and camping; however, it is only very rustic camping so you mush be prepared for wilderness camping and must be self-sufficient. Besides that there are 2 cabins, at Hiakwah lake, that are rustic and intended for use by the Kamloops Snowmobile Association and associated snowmobilers. All other lodges in this park are privet and so are not for public uses. This park also has winter recreation. Finally, in this area there is unique geological features including the volcanic plug of Skoatl Point and Stockton Hill south of Bare Lake. Park Size: 11,833 hectares
