Kamloops Lake View Point
Kamloops & Whisler, CANADÀ 2024

Panoramic Views: It offers spectacular, 180-degree panoramic views of the vast Kamloops Lake, which is a wide, deep section of the Thompson River.
Unique Landscape: The viewpoint showcases the striking contrast of the semi-arid, sagebrush-covered (desert-like) landscape of the BC interior, with the golden-hued hills plunging into the deep blue waters of the lake.
Observation Spot: It is an excellent spot for photography, particularly at sunrise and sunset, and allows visitors to observe the railway tracks (both CNR and CPR) that meander along the shores of the lake.
Nearby Attractions: From the viewpoint, you can often spot nearby geological formations, including the vividly coloured bluffs and the feature known as the Coyote Rock (a local balancing rock).
