Location
The Park offers spectacular views of area mountains and cliffs , and is a great jumping off place to explore the Caves at the Provincial Park next door. The Lighthouse Country communities of Qualicum Bay and Bowser are situated about 25 kilometres to the east along the oceanfront, and provide the nearest location for gas, groceries, restaurants and other amenities.
The #hornelake Experience
becca_frangos taking a much needed knee-bar break on the 97 move sufferfest, Asdato. This was the first time I’ve ever Jumar’ed up to get a shot and I have so much respect for climbing photographers that do this daily and to much higher heights.

The moments that make you feel so small, yet so powerful are the ones that truly take your breath away 💙
This route, Dinosaur Highway, was my main goal in coming to Horne Lake. It's always a gamble to travel somewhere with the intention of trying a specific route, not knowing if I'll like it or if it will suit me well. Luckily I didn't just like it, I loved it, and it didn't just suit me well, it suited me perfectly. I went from hanging at every draw one day to sending the next, which is a pretty magical feeling! Canada has been so good to me this year, I'm super proud to send its second 5.14a, and maybe work on the first next summer 😁

‼️⚠️ Climbing Access ⚠️‼️
•
There has been a recent surge in popularity at Horne Lake. The psych is exciting, but more people = more pressure on access. Many folks may not be aware that the climbing is dependent on a sensitive balance between climbers and the Strata + landowners at Horne.
•
It is extremely important that we do NOT camp on strata land. The climbing parking lot is off limits for camping, as are all strata properties in the area. There is a great Regional Campground right on the lake.
•
We all need to do our part to protect existing Climbing Access and preserve the relationships that keep this access open ❤️
