Abbot Lake Recreation Site
Abbot Lake Recreation Site
Abbott Lake Recreation Site is a small, free BC Forest Recreation Site on the northeast shore of Abbott Lake, northwest of Merritt in the Thompson-Nicola region.
The site offers three gravel-pad campsites at roughly 240 metres elevation, suitable for tent campers and small truck campers.
Trailers are not recommended due to rough, challenging access via the Tyner Lake Forest Service Road, which requires a four-wheel-drive vehicle. Facilities include picnic tables, vault toilets, and a boat launch.
No drinking water is available and no reservations are accepted. The site is popular for fishing and boating, providing a rustic backcountry experience in a semi-open lakeside setting.
It is managed by the BC Ministry of Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.
