About

This is a small timbered site on a beautiful little lake, Wap Lake. There are two small sites and a small overflow parking area beside the road. Good fishing and viewing opportunities exist at the site as well as a steep boat launch that is used when the water is high during the spring. Be aware that the site is located directly beside an active industrial road.

Driving Directions

Wap Lake can be reached using the Wap Creek forest service road, which starts at the Trans-Canada Highway just west of Three Valley Gap. While road conditions vary with weather, two-wheel drive vehicles can usually use this road in summer. The two small sites are located at 12 km on the Wap Lake Forest Service Road, they will be on the right side of the road.

Caution - This is an active industrial road - using a two-way radio with resource road channels is recommended.

Access

Road (4 wheel drive, 2 wheel drive, or motor home)
