How to get to Tyhee Lake Provincial Park
The park sits off Highway 16, 10 km east of Smithers and a short drive from Telkwa, with Prince George roughly 370 km (about 4.5 hours) to the east and Prince Rupert about 350 km (around 4 hours) to the west. Highway 16 (the Yellowhead) is the primary RV route and is generally well suited to large rigs, though winter snow, icy grades, and wildlife on the road demand caution. The nearest airport for fly-and-rent travelers is Smithers Regional Airport (YYD), about 15 minutes away. Carry chains or winter tires when traveling in shoulder or off-season months.
