The vast landscape of the Cariboo Chilcotin Coast stretches from the wildness of the Pacific Coast to the rolling Cariboo Mountains, with forests, hidden lakes, craggy peaks and golden plains set in between. This is a region with a past rich in the spirit of adventure, a land settled by entrepreneurs and outdoor enthusiasts, artists and explorers.
The CaribooBordered 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 ChilcotinStretching 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 CoastThe 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.
