Kump Lake (Merritt)

Description And Directions

Site Description: This recreation site is popular with camping, fishing and hunting enthusiasts. There are 2 distinct small camping areas;the northern end of the lake is a bit more shady and tighter while the western side of the lake is more sunny and open. Most of the sites are not suitable for very large motorhomes or fifth wheels. The best boat launch is located on the south end campsite but it is a little tight and is suitable for smaller vehicles with small boat trailers. No camping on the shoreline is permitted.

Driving Directions: Located north of Pike Mountain, access is off Highway 5A to Princeton via the Pike Mountain Road. Proceed up this road to the 2 km mark where you will see a cattle guard. Turn left there and proceed a kilometre or so staying to the right. The first campsite located on the west side of the lake is located here. The second camp site is located on the south end of the lake. Continue on the main road past the cattle guard to about the 3 km mark, again turn left and follow it in to the campsite about a kilometre in.
