Route Description for Hike to Rohr Lake

The Rohr Lake Hike is a great trail near Pemberton that climbs uphill through the forest to the serene waters of Rohr Lake. Although the route is only moderate, there is a decent scramble section on the approach to the lake. Hikers should be prepared for trail conditions that will almost certainly include mud and snow early/late in the season and bugs during the summer. Bring any necessary gear, such as hiking boots, crampons, snowshoes, or microspikes, to better traverse the trail. Additionally, as is the case with most routes in BC, hikers should carry bear spray to avoid any potentially dangerous encounters with bears or big cats.

This hiking route has a great variation in terrain that will make for a fun day of uphill adventuring towards Rohr Lake. Setting out on the trail, you will very quickly reach a junction with Cayoosh Creek FSR. Follow the road north on a path leading through the forest towards the lake. Reaching a fork in the trail, follow the path to the left to stay on the service road for another 1.3 km. At this point, you will leave the road to continue along the Marriott Basin Trail. Follow this trail as it crosses over several streams before traversing a technical boulder field on the final approach to the lake.

Reaching the shores of Rohr Lake, you’ll be rewarded with picturesque views over the turquoise water and the rugged mountains that frame the backdrop. After taking in the spectacular views and spending some time by Rohr Lake, head back down the same trail to return to your vehicle below.
