About this site

Source ↗

This site provides a scenic river setting in an open Douglas Fir forest with natural camping pads on both sides of the main road, just before the bridge crossing at the Blackwater River. The site offers the basic amenities of pit toilets, tables and fire rings. For the adventurer, there are opportunities to explore the Blackwater Canyon and Alexander Mackenzie Heritage Trails. Anglers have the opportunity to explore the river and try to catch some of the famous Blackwater River rainbow trout (reminder that this river is a Classified Water - please check the regulations beforehand)
