About Tagai Lake
This semi-remote site offers space for 8 camping parties and is a great option for people who like to get a bit further off the beaten path. The site is located along the terraced slopes near the shores of Tagai Lake and offers the basic amenities of tables, fire rings and pit toilets. There is an unimproved gravel boat launch that is ideal for car-top boats, but launching of smaller trailered boats is possible. The lake offers angling opportunities for wild rainbow trout and burbot.
