The Bowron Lake area is a beautiful stop for outdoor enthusiasts and even for those who want to take in the serene view of the lake and surrounding landscape. Only about a 30 minute drive down a well-maintained dirt road will bring you to Bowron Lake and the start of the world renowned canoe circuit. At Bowron Lake Becker’s Lodge and Bowron Lake Lodge offer rustic cabins and camping a short distance from the lake itself or Bowron Lake Provincial Park offers well-maintained and forested sites a little further down the road. Even if you do not want to undertake the several-day canoe circuit you can rent canoes for the day to do some exploring or use the area as a quick access to hiking or Barkerville and Wells. Or simply lie on the quiet beach and enjoy the sunshine in a mountainous setting.
