About Agur Lake Camp

BC's only barrier-free wilderness campground

Tucked in the mountains outside of Summerland, Agur Lake Camp is a one-of-a-kind place. It is British Columbia's only fully barrier-free wilderness campground — designed from the ground up so that people with physical disabilities, mobility challenges, and diverse abilities can experience the healing power of nature alongside their families and caregivers.

Since opening in 2013, the camp has welcomed hundreds of families every summer. Fully paved paths, accessible cabins, a fishing dock, and a day-use area — all completely free of barriers. Every summer, the camp fills to capacity and turns families away.

The Campaign

From diesel to the grid — permanently

Since the camp opened in 2013, power has come from a diesel generator. It works — but it costs $30,000 per year in fuel and maintenance, requires constant attention, and creates noise and fumes in a place built for peace and recovery. Connecting to the BC Hydro grid solves all of this, permanently.
