BEACH INFO:

Taweel Lake lies within Taweek Provincial Park and protects an area of sub-boreal spruce. This is a wilderness area, so visitors should come self-sufficient and prepared. No vehicle access leads into the park. There are some private resorts at the east end of the lake that require 4-wheel-drive.

According to BC Parks, "This park protects a representative sub-boreal spruce forest, with some old-growth, and riparian areas at the north end of Taweel Lake. The area has important habitat for fisher, wild native rainbow trout, moose, marten, timber wolf and birds such as the Common Loon, Barrow's Goldeneye and the Three-toed Woodpecker."
