About Marble River

Located just off the highway, this well-maintained recreation site is easily accessible to campers or picnickers. Half of the sites are located on the lower loop along the Marble River with the remainder of the sites located in the upper loop sheltered in the trees. The picnic shelter beside the highway is for day use only and a great place to stop for lunch on your way through to Port Alice. The site will be closed and gated for the season September 7, 2026 at noon.

Please pack out what you pack in as there are no garbage disposal services at Marble River.

If using the boat launch, please park your vehicle and boat trailer in the Marble River Recreation Site parking lot adjacent to the day use area.

The 4.2 km trail in the adjacent Marble River Provincial Park provides additional recreation opportunities (accessed through the upper loop of sites). A small parking area is available in the upper loop at the trail head. Please park in the designated area only or in the day use area.
