(CAUTION: CHECK ROAD CONDITIONS, NEED 4x4) Bluey Lake Merritt BC is a perfect outdoor summer getaway destination. Situated close to both Highway 97C and Highway 5A, the lake offers stunning views of the Douglas Fir forest and crystal clear waters that are great for kayaking, paddle boarding or simply relaxing with a picnic. The area has several camping pads around the lake for visitors to pitch their tents. The narrow access road into the lake might be a bit diifficult to navigate through, but once you arrive it's worth the effort as you experience some of nature's best beauty right at its shores.
