Cat Lake

This lake near Squamish has been the subject of crackdowns due to rowdy parties going on late into the night, but there’s a reason it’s so much fun – it’s fairly isolated down a gravel road, the lake water is warm and inviting, and there are loads of rope swings too.

Where: About one hour and 15 minutes’ drive from downtown Vancouver, off Highway 99, about 15 km north of Squamish
