Kleena Kleene is a little town in the West Chilcotin. It is west of Tatla Lake and northeast of One-Eye Lake. It's name comes from the Klinaklini River, which runs through it.
The Klinaklini punches through the mountains and drains into Knight Inlet. It is an example of a Chilcotin river that doesn't drain into the Chilcotin drainage.The Hotnarko, Dean, and Atnarko are other rivers that drain directly into the Pacific. The Westroad River is the other main river that doesn't daring into the Chilko/Chiclotin system.
Logging, ranching and recreational activities are the main economic drivers. It is a launching place for trips to other Chilcotin tourist and recreation destinations. There are plenty of guest ranch and bed and breakfast opportunities in the immediate area.
Kleena Kleene is on Hwy 20. This road is also called the Freedom Highway. It is 150 miles to Williams Lake and 14 miles to Tatla Lake.
