Finger-Tatuk Park | British Columbia

Finger-Tatuk Park surrounds Finger and Tatuk Lakes and extends south to include Turff, Vance, Cory, Bodley, and Harp Lakes south of the Tatuk Hills. BC Parks describes it as a beautiful lake series and a regionally significant recreation destination.

The park is 80 kilometres south of Vanderhoof and 115 kilometres southwest of Prince George.

Why Visit Finger-Tatuk Park

Finger-Tatuk is a lake-country destination for fishing, boating, paddling, hunting, wildlife viewing, and winter recreation. Abundant rainbow trout and kokanee are the main attraction for anglers, with wild rainbow trout in Finger and Tatuk Lakes and a healthy kokanee population in Tatuk Lake.

There are no developed trails, but swimming, canoeing, kayaking, waterskiing, windsurfing, roadway cycling, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, tobogganing, ice-skating, and ice fishing are listed by BC Parks. Finger Lake Wilderness Resort sits at the west end of Finger Lake, and potable water is available at the resort rather than generally in the park.

The park also protects diverse habitat for grizzly and black bear, ungulates, small fur-bearers, waterfowl, shorebirds, eagles, kokanee, and rainbow trout. Cultural values include Carrier First Nations use, food cache pits, culturally altered trees, traditional trails, and village-site archaeology.

Things To Do

Plan around lake fishing, boating, canoeing, kayaking, swimming, waterskiing, windsurfing, wildlife viewing, roadway cycling, resort check-ins, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, ice-skating, ice fishing, and seasonal hunting.

Planning Notes

Bring drinking water or confirm resort services, drive active forest service roads with headlights on, watch for industrial traffic, check fishing and hunting regulations, and protect all natural and cultural resources.
