Nation Lakes
The Nation Lakes offer an unforgettable 120
kilometer canoe ride through the four spectacular
lakes Tsayta, Indata, Tchentlo and Chuchi. Connected
by the Nation River, the four lakes surrounded by
wilderness offer a memorable and peaceful canoe trip
through the incredible and unspoiled wilderness of
British Columbia, Canada.
Along their canoe route you will find several rustic
recreation campsites on all lakes, which you can use
for your canoe trip to relax and spend the night.
These campsites have a fire pit, a picnic table and an
outdoor toilet. However, you are free to set up your
camp at one of the beautiful sandy beaches along the
lakes.
The Nation Lakes Canoe Tour is the secret tip for an
undisturbed canoe trip through the wilderness of
Canada. You probably will not meet any other
canoeists or even tourists.
The canoe trip through the Nation Lakes is suitable for
both beginners and advanced alike. You do not need a
guide for this canoe tour. The Rogers Paradise Lodge
offers transport to the starting point at Tsayta Lake,
from which you can independently paddle.
We offer the canoue tour from the starting point
Tsayta to Rogers Paradise Lodge.
With a valid fishing license you can also go hunting for
the big Canadian lake trout (Char / Namaycush) and
rainbow trout during their canoe trip.
The fishing license can be purchased on request at
Rogers Paradise Lodge.
The Nation Lakes are located approximately 260 km
north west of Prince George or approximately 100 km
north of Fort St. James. The Provincial Park of the same
name was founded in 2004 as a result of the Fort St.
James Land Resource Management Plan.
