Owikeno Lake, also
Owekeeno Lake,
Owekano Lake,
Oweekayno Lake and other spellings (pron. "o we KEE no"), is a large
fjord lake in the
Central Coast region of
British Columbia,
Canada. It connects to the head of
Rivers Inlet by the short
Wannock River (Wanukv). The lake's name comes from the indigenous people of the region, the
Wuikinuxv, whose settlements and territory lie around the lake. Their largest and principal settlement was on an island in the lower reaches of the lake named
Katit.
