Elkhart Lake

This small recreation site was logged in the winter of 2009/2010 to remove pine beetle infected trees. As a result, the once heavily forested site is now very open.

The camping area is situated above the lake, and there is a short walking trail down the slope that provides access to the lake where you can drop your boat in.

The recreation site is a popular location for fishermen, hunters and campers.

From Merritt travel southeast on highway 97C towards Kelowna. Exit the highway at the Elkhart Lodge Interchange, keep to the right going underneath the highway and turn left onto the paved Paradise Lake Road. Travel along this road for approximately 2 kms. Watch for the recreation site sign that is located on the right hand side of the road.
