BC Parks

A nice trail that loops around the lake in McConnell Lake Provincial Park. Also makes a good snowshoe and Fat Bike loop in the winter. Watch for icy, off-camber sections in late winter, or any time after a prolonged melt. Recommended direction is clockwise. Note, e-bikes are not permitted as per BC Parks E-Bike Policy.
The provincial park day-use area has pit toilets, a picnic area, and a water pump (may only be available during the summer season).

Access Info

About 25 minutes south of Kamloops, off of Lac Le Jeune Road.
