About this site

Source

An open, quiet campsite with basic facilities, Gannett Lake sits well back in the country near Vavenby, and fishing is the main reason to make the trip.

There are 3 sites, first come, first served, and the access is rated 4x4, so bring a capable vehicle and leave the low car and the trailer at home.

Vavenby is about 29 km away and holds the nearest fuel, so top up there in both directions. Telfer Lake is about 2.6 km off if you want a second piece of water to fish.
