The Destination

Puntzi Lake

Puntzi Lake is situated near the tranquil community of Chilanko Forks, approximately 175 km west of Williams Lake (a roughly 2-hour drive) via the Chilcotin-Bella Coola Highway (BC-20W). As one of the larger lakes in central Chilcotin, Puntzi Lake resides in the heart of the traditional territory of the Tsilhqot'in people and was once home to a sizable village. Renowned for its abundant population of Rainbow Trout and Kokanee fish, along with its diverse birdlife, Puntzi Lake offers a picturesque and unspoiled natural setting unlike any other within a short distance from Cariboo’s central hub.
