About Birkenhead Lake Park

Birkenhead Lake Park is located 90 km north of Whistler. To get there, follow Highway 99 north from Whistler. In Pemberton follow the signs to Mount Currie and then to D’Arcy. The turnoff to the park is 33 km from the turnoff to D’Arcy. The park is 17 km from this point on a good quality, loose gravel road.

The park includes old growth forests, sub-alpine, and alpine environments. Birkenhead Lake is right beside the campground and there are several other small lakes in the park. The park protects important habitats for a variety of wildlife, including spotted owls, mountain goats, black bears, and grizzly bears.

Birkenhead Lake Park offers the serenity of wilderness camping with the convenience of vehicle access.  The Lake is great for fishing, complete with a boat launch. Fish for rainbow trout, dolly varden, kokanee, and whitefish. Hiking and mountain biking are popular activities on the network of trails in the park and beyond.  The lake is clear and fairly warm; great for swimming.

Note: Please check for the status of catch and release for the fish identified above.
