The Cariboo Chilcotin Coast region of Super, Natural British Columbia - whether you've got a hankering to ride the range, relive Gold Rush history, fish to your heart's content, get an adrenaline rush, or just get away from it all, the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast offers the perfect places to do just that.
The Cariboo Chilcotin Coast’s spectacular landscapes, sparkling lakes and rivers, gorgeous wildlife, and friendly folks make it a popular destination for outdoor activities and relaxing.
The Cariboo - Bordered by the Cariboo Mountains in the east and the Fraser River in the west, the Cariboo stretches north to the Blackwater River and south to the towns of Clinton and Lillooet. Drive the original Cariboo Waggon Road on the historic Gold Rush Trail. Lodge at a local guest ranch and visit a cowboy museum. The region is famous for its rodeos and stampedes. And no trip would be complete without paddling the legendary Bowron Lake Provincial Park Canoe Circuit.
The Chilcotin - Stretching west beyond the Fraser River, a burnished golden plateau meets the peaks of the Coast Mountain Range. In the Chilcotin, visitors can hike beyond the trails, fish in isolated lakes, reach high alpine with a packhorse trek and raft churning whitewater. You won't want to miss the volcanic mountains of Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, nor the ancient hoodoos and shifting sand dune of Farwell Canyon.
The Coast - The dramatic Coast region reaches from above Rivers Inlet to include the southern end of Princess Royal Island. A jumble of deep fjords and a scattering of emerald islands enchant and offer endless exploration opportunities by boat (ferry, kayak, canoe or yacht). Visit First Nations villages, rich in heritage, old growth forests, isolated hot springs and massive mountains.
