To get to Bedwell Lake visitors must drive over the Thelwood River Bridge near the south end of Buttle Lake and then turn left onto Jim Mitchell Road. It is a rough 6.8km long gravel road not well suited to small cars without 4 wheel drive. The trail is about 6km long and contains both a river valley cloaked in old-growth forest as well as rocky sub-alpine vistas. Camping is allowed in the designated areas at Bedwell and Baby Bedwell Lakes .
Prices
Backcountry camping fees are $10.00 per adult (age 16 and over) and $5.00 per youth (age 6-15) per night. Campers must register before they camp at vaults found at the trailheads. This also allows the Park Facility Operators to be aware of your entry location, date and general plans in case of an emergency.
Fires
Campfires are strictly forbidden in the extremely dry and delicate backcountry of Strathcona Park.
