    Tips

    Elk Lake is a deep, freshwater lake connected to Beaver Lake by a narrow channel. Known for its calm surface and consistent winds, it’s a training ground for competitive rowing and a favorite for paddling and fishing. Surrounded by forest and part of a larger regional park, it's a great place for a quiet escape just minutes from Victoria.
