South Gataga Lake
The South Gataga Lakes are in Dune Za Keyih Provincial Park in the heart of the Muskwa/Kechika Wilderness area. The South Gataga River originates from a chain of four mountain lakes. Our cabin is located on the five mile long lake, which is the largest of these four.
From the front porch of the Gataga cabin enjoy the majestic, nameless peaks of the Northern Rockies. A natural mineral lick on the second lake attracts moose and caribou, and can easily be reached by boat or canoe through a short connecting stream. This is the reason why the Muskwa/Kechika is known as the Serengeti of the North.
Other animals frequently observed are beaver, otter, wolf and an abundance of water fowl. Fish species include lake trout, arctic grayling and northern pike.
The South Gataga lakes are excellent for trolling and spin casting.
