Walloper
Lake in early Spring
|
Walloper Lake
Provincial Park, situated just off the Coquihalla Highway, offers
good fishing and picnicking on a day-use only basis.
This former
Forest Service recreation site is being operated to Forest Service
standards (rustic) to serve regional use and the needs of travellers
on the Coquihalla Highway.
Walloper Lake
is surrounded by open lodgepole pine, spruce, and fir forest. Canoeing
and kayaking are popular activities in the park, and although there
are no developed ski trails at Walloper Lake Provincial Park, the
park is used by cross-country skiers willing to cut their own tracks.

Facilities in the
55-hectare park include a picnic table, pit toilets, a fishing wharf,
and an undeveloped area for launching small boats. The nearest public
telephone is located at Lac
Le Jeune Provincial Park, 2 km away.
The park site
is now closed to camping out of a concern for overloading of the
roadside park, and campers are directed to the Lac Le Jeune campground.
Overnight camping is therefore not permitted in Walloper Lake Park.
Walloper Lake
Provincial Park is located 23 miles (37 km) south of Kamloops, accessible
via the Lac Le Jeune exit off Coquihalla Highway 5. Watch for highway
signs for Lac Le Jeune Park.
