Sasamat Lake Map

The trail loops around the lake so you can start at any point. Most start near the car park at White Pine beach.

Description

Walk counter clockwise around the lake, keeping the lake always on your left hand side.

Follow the trail round the lake then continue up the wooden stairs and merge with the gravel road above and follow the road to the left.

As the trail continues toward Bedwell Bay Road walk down the steps. Cross the stream and turn left to continue round the lake.

The trail eventually arrives at the south end of the lake with a crossing. Once you've crossed the lake continue along the trail back to White Pine beach.

On a nice day it's worth stopping at the crossing at the South end of the lake for a quick dip or relaxing at White Pine Beach.

This trail and lake get very busy, especially in the summer months so arrive early. Parking is limited.
