LOCATION You will find Big Bar Lake on the Cariboo Plateau of south central British Columbia, lying at the base of the Marble Mountain Range. It is on the edge of wilderness, but within a 5-hour drive of the Lower Fraser Valley. This scenery rich area of BC remains to be discovered by most of those seeking refuge from the busy, hectic life of the Lower Mainland. Big Bar Lake is a place you can feel yourself going back in time. Big Bar Lake contains some of the cleanest, most clear water to be found in the region. Big Bar Lake is a marl lake, meaning that the minerals in the water and the lake bottom give it beautiful two-tone colors. The area is known for its great natural beauty and for its peace and quiet. Towing behind boats is not allowed, and there is a 10 km maximum speed limit on the water. It is located in the lee of the Marble Mountain Range gives the Big Bar Lake area a unique micro-climate, with more days of sunshine than areas in the south central interior of British Columbia. Winters are cold enough to freeze the lake’s surface solid, while summers are hot enough to provide wonderful swimming in the lake’s warm waters. ACCESS Take Highway 1 to Hope.
