About
This is a small timbered site with good nature study opportunities(especially bird watching). Herman is small little lake just south of Blind Bay. It has a 50 meter boardwalk that takes you over a marsh to the edge of the lake. There are trails that go around the lake that allow you to view waterfowl.
Road access. User-maintained site with no regular servicing. Facilities on file: boat launch, toilets, picnic tables, fire rings. First come, first served.
Getting there: From Sorrento travel on Hwy 1 approximately 10km East (or 25km West of Salmon Arm). Turn north onto Balmoral Rd. Turn right immediately onto White Lake Rd and eventually turn left/east onto Parri Rd at the west end of White Lake. At the end of the pavement on Parri Rd, turn left/north onto the White Lake Forest Service Rd, and go approx. 8.3 km to Herman Lake. Keep left at the corral and watch for a sign on the right
