Ferry Lake
A high-mountain lake, with hiking, camping, and trout fishing....
This off-the-beaten path, but easily-accessed lake offers visitors to the Colville National Forest a tranquil location to camp, fish, and hike. With its handful of camp sites and ban on combustion engines, the lake is quiet enough to hear ducks and loons calling to each other across the lake.
Conveniently located near Swan, Fish, and Long Lakes, Ferry Lake is a good launching ground for riding, hiking, and bicycling vacations.
Late spring and early summer are the best times to fish for brook, rainbow, and cutthroat trout.
