Meziadin Lake Park is on Highway 37, 155 kilometres north of Kitwanga, just south of Meziadin Junction and 50 kilometres east of Stewart. BC Parks describes it as a favourite stop for travellers and locals, with an excellent campground on the shore of Meziadin Lake.
The park works as a northern base camp for exploring the region, including day trips toward Bear Glacier, Stewart, and Hyder, Alaska.
Meziadin Lake combines easy highway access with a strong lake setting. Visitors can swim in the cool designated swimming area, paddle with mountain views, launch a boat from the campground, and fish for rainbow and Dolly Varden trout with the proper licence.
Wildlife and salmon viewing are major parts of the visit. BC Parks says the park contains high-value grizzly bear habitat, black bears are commonly seen, and salmon spawn in the lake and in nearby Hanna and Tintina creeks. Late summer brings sockeye salmon moving up nearby creeks, making this a memorable stop for careful wildlife watching.
Camp beside the lake, swim in the designated area, canoe or kayak, launch a boat, fish for rainbow and Dolly Varden trout, watch for spawning sockeye, look for bears from a safe distance, cycle on roadways, and use the park as a base for Stewart-area day trips.
Bears frequent the area throughout the season. Store food carefully, report bear incidents as directed by BC Parks, keep pets leashed and off beaches, keep e-bikes off trails, and remember there are no lifeguards.
