Marble Canyon Provincial Park — Pavilion Creek Canyon Trailhead

This trailhead is your on-ramp to Marble Canyon Provincial Park’s showpiece geology — towering limestone walls, back-to-back coloured lakes (Crown, Turquoise, and Pavilion), and the kind of scenery that makes you forget you just drove three hours of washboard to get here. The trailhead has a parking area, outhouse, and interpretive signage. It’s a day-use point, but the campground is a short drive back and serves as the overnight base for anyone working the Potato Range FSR or Marble Range routes out of Clinton.

Access is off Pavilion Lake Road northeast of Lillooet — the final stretch into the park is well-maintained gravel and passable for any 2WD rig in dry season. Summer weekends get crowded with day-trippers from Kamloops and Vancouver. Spring and fall you’ll have the canyon almost to yourself. Snow can linger on the upper canyon walls well into May.

Limestone canyon and turquoise lakes — worth every washboard mile.
