King Edward Lake sits on the high alpine Aberdeen Plateau in the Okanagan Valley of British Columbia, at an elevation of 1,358 meters.

Located roughly 30 minutes from Vernon near the community of Lavington, the lake is reached via King Edward Forest Service Road, which begins off Highway 6 and climbs approximately 12 kilometers through increasingly steep and rough terrain with washboard sections, ruts, and switchbacks.

The north access point provides entry to the lake and surrounding plateau, where a recreation site serves as a base for fishing and exploration. The FSR can be muddy in early season or after heavy rain, and a high-clearance vehicle is advisable.
