18 sites have electricity available with 30 amp service. Please note campers occupying sites with electricity will pay an extra $5.00/night (whether the power is in use or not).
Campfires
While campfires are allowed and campfire rings are provided at each campsite, we encourage visitors to conserve wood and protect the environment by minimizing the use of fire and using campstoves instead. Firewood can be purchased in the park or you may bring your own wood. Fees for firewood are set locally and may vary from park to park. Limited burning hours or campfire bans may be implemented. To preserve vegetation and ground cover, please don’t gather firewood from the area around your campsite or elsewhere in the park (this is a ticketable offence under the Park Act ). Dead wood is an important habitat element for many plants and animals and it adds organic matter to the soil.
Swimming
Swimmers can take a dip in the cool waters but please stay within the designated area.
Canoeing
Meziadin Lake Park is an excellent location for canoeing or kayaking and offers beautiful views of the surrounding landscape.
Kayaking
Fishing
Meziadin Lake Park offers quality lake fishing opportunities. There is a boat launch located in the campground. Rainbow trout and Dolly Varden are the main species in this lake. In late summer, spawning sockeye salmon make their way up nearby creeks. Anglers and wildlife watchers alike can observe part of the salmon’s incredible journey. Anyone fishing or angling in British Columbia must have an appropriate licence.
Wildlife viewing
Meziadin Lake Park contains high value grizzly bear habitat and black and grizzly bears are commonly seen in the area. Salmon spawn in the lake and in nearby Hanna and Tintina Creeks and the park allows visitors an excellent opportunity to observe this part of the salmon’s incredible journey.
Pets on leash
Pets/domestic animals must be on a leash at all times and are not allowed in beach areas or park buildings. You are responsible for their behaviour and must dispose of their excrement.
