Anglemont: Lakeside, Park and Boat Trips

Anglemont offers two clear focal points for planning your trip: time by the lake and activities on the water. At Lakeview Community Park, you can swim and picnic; at Anglemont Marina, there is a boat landing service and a range of rental boats. Above Anglemont, a return trail also winds through the North Shuswap forest to Evelyn Falls. This combination gives you concrete options when looking for a hotel in Anglemont and deciding whether to focus your stay on time by the shore, a boat trip or a hike.

By the lake: Lakeview Community Park

Lakeview Community Park is a lakeside swimming and picnic area in Anglemont. Its beach is more than 200 metres long and faces south. You can plan swimming and a picnic in one place, making the park a good fit for a stay where the lakeshore itself is a destination. The park has parking for eight to ten cars. If you are arriving by car, you can take this capacity into account when planning your visit.

Boat landing service and boat rentals

Anglemont Marina charges $10 per trip for its boat landing service; operating details may vary seasonally. The marina also rents a range of boats for lake trips, wakeboarding sessions or camping trips, and seasonal availability may vary. Check what is offered for your travel dates before visiting.

Evelyn Falls above Anglemont

Above Anglemont, close to town, the return trail to Evelyn Falls winds through the North Shuswap forest to a hidden waterfall. Trail conditions may vary; check them before visiting. In the same area, experienced hikers and snowshoers can explore some forest service roads and logging roads farther up the creek. Access and conditions may also vary in the backcountry.
