Traveling to Bowron Lake

 

Bowron Lake is approximately 800 km (500 mi) north of Vancouver and 120 km (75 mi) east of Quesnel B.C..  From Vancouver to Quesnel you follow highway 97.  Once you reach Quesnel, you travel east on highway 26 to the 1930's town of Wells.  From here you carry on to the Bowron Lake Road which turns off the pavement just before the historic town of Barkerville.  This is a good gravel road which travels 28km (18 mi) to Bowron Lake.

How to Find Bear River Mercantile

When you reach Bowron Lake continue past the first two Lodges and follow the lake shore until you come to the Bowron River Bridge.  Bear River Mercantile is on your right hand side just beyond the Bowron River Bridge. The B.C. Provincial Parks Registration Centre and Park Campground is 2 more kms past our door.
