Take a BC Road Trip This Spring

Follow the road less travelled

Keremeos | Hubert Kang

Why not take that next exit on your spring getaway? Go at your own pace and try something new as you explore unique attractions and scenic stops. Whether it’s a road you’ve never travelled or a different way to experience a familiar place, this is the year to expand your horizons.

After a year like no other, we are all eager for new adventures, new landscapes, and new connections. The vastness of BC and the diversity of its terrain and its people make a road trip the perfect way to move from the familiar to the excitement of the unknown. So choose your route (or routes) and get back in touch with your adventurous spirit.

Victoria's Inner Harbour | Fairmont Empress

Pacific Marine Circle Route

Beginning and ending in Victoria, this scenic road trip includes ocean adventures, rainforest hiking, museums, Indigenous works of art, hyperlocal food and drink, and more.

Spend a few days exploring the southern end of Vancouver Island, and discover new delights along with some of your favourite Island adventures. High tea at the Empress is always a treat, and The Butchart Gardens will take your breath away at any time of year. But have you seen the stunning view from the top of the new Malahat Skywalk? Or fallen asleep to the sound of the ocean in a seaside cabin at Wild Renfrew?

Spring is the ideal time to experience it all.
