Kathleen Lake
Kathleen Lake
Kathleen Lake Campground is a Parks Canada facility located at kilometre 220 of the Haines Highway within Kluane National Park and Reserve.
It offers 38 unserviced campsites nestled among spruce trees, each with a picnic table and fire pit, and is the park's primary destination for highway-accessible, vehicle-based camping.
Amenities include potable drinking water, firewood, bear-proof storage lockers, grey water sinks, bear-resistant garbage and recycling bins, outhouses, and a playground.
A maximum motorhome length of 30 feet is recommended, as none of the sites are pull-throughs. The campground sits just a short walk from the shores of Kathleen Lake, whose Southern Tutchone name, Mät'atäna Män, means "something frozen inside the lake."
Hiking, boating, and fishing are all accessible nearby, and campfire talks are offered during summer. The adjacent day-use area features a kitchen shelter, picnic facilities, and a boat launch.
The challenging King's Throne trail, a 5-kilometre ascent to a glacially formed amphitheater overlooking the lake, is among the most popular hikes in the area.
