About

A lovely place to picnic and swim. The interpretive trail has old growth trees, wildflowers, bird viewing, and painted turtles. There are trails on the two islands in the lake, along the shoreline, and across the road from the park.

East of Salmon Arm on Hwy 1, turn south on Hwy 97B and drive approx. 15.8 km to Gardom Lake Rd, then turn right. Travel 3.5 km and turn left onto Park Rd. Proceed 700 m to the park entrance and parking area on the left. Additional parking for launching canoes and kayaks can be found by driving a little further south on Park Rd, turning east on Musgrave Rd to the CSRD Parks hand launch site.
