Farewell Lake, Vancouver Island is one of those lakes that when you first see it, takes your breath away. It is such a pretty lake. It is located on the blackwater lake road. You can also access the lake using the lake view road at the Roberts lake store.
There is an abundance of wildlife in this area and l saw the biggest cougar l have ever seen just down the road from here as well as large herds of elk and plenty of birds. The lake has a good rainbow and cutthroat fishery. This lake is an artificial fly-fishing-only lake. Best to use a kayak or canoe to get into those little bays that dot the shores of this beautiful little lake. There is a good car-top boat launch along with a few rustic campsites located at the lake.
