Trail Overview

Burnell Lake Road is close to the town of Oliver. There is a lot of activity on the route with a small climb in order to reach the recreational campsite along the lake. The road has some washboarding and minor rutting, but overall it is well-maintained. It is a popular spot for outdoor recreation and a very popular fishing lake. There are great views of the valley along the way, and it makes for a nice quick camping destination or day trip to take in all of the beauty the area has to offer.
