Painted Bluffs Provincial Park is found on the north side of Kamloops Lake with no road, nor trail access.

Driving Directions/Trailheads:

• The easiest access to the park is by boat, landing on the shores of the lake, and the hiking up into the hills.   We have done this by kayak a few times.   See the link below.
• Hikers can go to the Painted Bluffs by hiking over ridges and through gullies from the Copper Creek Road.    There are no trails so navigation is required.
• We have also hiked in to the Bluffs from the Carbine creek Road.   There are easier slopes to hike, but it is a longer route.
• We have also hiked in from the east along Kamloops Lake from Tranquille.    That took us 8 hours one way.

Trails/Routes:

• Copper Creek Road to Painted Bluffs – Over the Hills to Painted Bluffs
• By Boat – Across Kamloops Lake to Painted Bluffs
• Overland to Painted Bluffs
• Tranquille to Painted Bluffs – Kamloops Lake Trek
