• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Parks & Gardens in Dease Lake, BC, British Columbia.
With the Todagin Mountains to the east and the Klastine Plateau to the west, Kinaskan Lake Provincial Park offers a varied surrounding for fishing, camping and hiking. The park makes an ideal base when exploring nearby Spatsizi or Mount Edziza Provincial Parks. The lake is an ideal spot for swimming, boating and fishing for rainbow trout.
Situated north of 40 Mile Flats off Hwy 37, this recreation area is covered with forests, lakes and alpine meadows and is remote, solitary and rugged. The park contains two hiking trails and activities include fishing. Canoeing and kayaking are permitted only along the upper Stikine River. Wilderness camping is also allowed but watch out for area residents which include grizzly and black bears, wolves, moose, beavers, birds and more.
Denetiah Provincial Park is located 120 km east of Dease Lake in the Cassiar Mountains. Visitors can canoe, fish and swim in Denetiah and Dall Lake. The area is also popular with hikers, horseback riders and wildlife enthusiasts. There are no designated roads into the area and access is either by plane or boat.
Chukachida River Protected Area provides important protection for the local wolverine, moose, grizzly, caribou and fish populations. The river is a key wildlife corridor, connecting animals with the surrounding areas. Moose hunting and bull trout fishing are permitted in the park's wide, u-shaped valleys—with a proper license.
Boya Lake is known for its crystal-clear water. Visitors are attracted to the lake and then captured by the variety of other attractions available to explore within the park. The area surrounding the lake was formed by glacial flow, over 20000 years ago, and the elongated ridges around the lake are evidence of this phenomenon. Hiking and biking trails can be found and many enjoy exploring the bays and islands around the lake.
