Discover British Columbia’s Top Tourism Activities, Adventures and Things to Do

Your Ultimate Guide to British Columbia Travel, Parks, Trails, Attractions, and Outdoor Adventures

Welcome to the Heart of BC Adventure Travel. If you're seeking unforgettable experiences in British Columbia, Canada, then BC Adventure Travel is your go-to guide. This west coast paradise is where rugged landscapes meet ocean breezes, where small towns and untamed wilderness offer endless opportunities for exploration. Whether you're planning a weekend escape or a month-long journey, our BC Adventure Travel website is built to connect you to the province’s best accommodations, attractions, parks, tours, and trails.

British Columbia: Canada’s Wilderness Playground

British Columbia is Canada’s most western province, stretching from the Pacific Ocean to the Rocky Mountains. Over 50% of BC’s vast terrain is untouched by human development, providing a pristine playground for BC adventure travel enthusiasts. From the coastal fjords and alpine peaks to ancient forests and island archipelagos, this province is brimming with natural wonders. Furthermore, many parts of British Columbia have been recognized for their ecological significance. The Spirit Bear, the white-coated Kermode bear, is found only here. Additionally, BC is part of the Pacific Flyway—an aerial highway for millions of migrating birds. These unique characteristics are what make BC adventure travel a world-renowned experience.

Capital City Adventures in Victoria, British Columbia

Victoria, the capital city of British Columbia, is located on the southern tip of Vancouver Island. Often called the “City of Gardens,” it offers a rich blend of natural beauty and colonial charm. Notably, Victoria is also the Cycling Capital of Canada, making it a hub for eco-conscious travel and urban adventures. Because of its mild coastal climate, Victoria is a year-round destination. Its harbour tours, heritage architecture, and vibrant cultural scene provide a more relaxed yet still adventurous side of BC adventure travel.

Activities and Things to Do in BC’s Parks and Trails

Not surprisingly, British Columbia boasts Canada’s second-largest parks system. With over 1,000 parks and protected areas, outdoor lovers will never run out of trails, viewpoints, and campgrounds. Some must-visit sites include:

- Della Falls in Strathcona Provincial Park (Canada’s tallest waterfall)

- Khutzeymateen Grizzly Bear Sanctuary (Canada’s only grizzly reserve)

- Fraser River (the longest river in British Columbia at 1,400 km)

- Pacific Crest Trailhead (start your journey northward from Manning Park)

Many of these trails and parks are remote, and much of the information about them is still passed by word of mouth or through explorers like yourself. Therefore, your adventure in BC can be as off-the-grid or as guided as you wish.

Wild Highlights and Unusual Finds in British Columbia

Equally impressive are the quirky and surprising attractions scattered across British Columbia. Interestingly, BC is also a major producer of cranberries and blueberries—ranked top 3 in the world. And for history buffs, the last spike of Canada’s railway was driven in Craigellachie, BC. Meanwhile, wine lovers can explore over 870 vineyards dotting the province’s interior. These unique features make BC adventure travel both diverse and delicious.

Plan Your Adventure Travel in British Columbia, Canada

For those searching for real, raw, and rugged adventures, BC adventure travel delivers on all fronts. From whale watching on the coast to heli-skiing in the backcountry, the options are as vast as the landscape. Not to mention, a majority of these experiences are designed to bring you closer to nature and local communities. Surprisingly, many of the best experiences in British Columbia are still undiscovered by mass tourism. As a result, travellers are rewarded with more authentic and less crowded experiences. This is your chance to explore BC, Canada, before everyone else does.

    Halifax Citadel: History, Highlanders & The Best Views in the City

    If you’re visiting Halifax, Nova Scotia, one attraction you simply can’t miss is the Halifax Citadel National Historic Site. Towering above downtown on Citadel Hill, this star-shaped fortress has stood watch over the city since 1749. Today, it’s a fully immersive historic site that brings Canada’s military past to life.

    What to Expect at the Citadel:

    As soon as you walk through the gates, you’re greeted by costumed interpreters - members of the 78th Highland Regiment, complete with kilts and bagpipes. Yes, we were lucky enough to catch a live bagpipe performance right on the parade grounds!

    Highlights of Our Visit:

    • Exploring the ramparts with views of the Halifax Harbour and skyline

    • Bagpipers in full Highland dress performing traditional tunes

    Getting There:

    The Citadel is just a 10-15 minute uphill walk from the Halifax Cruise Port or downtown area. While it’s a bit of a climb, the panoramic views from the top are absolutely worth it.

    Admission Info:

    • Included with a Parks Canada Discovery Pass (or you can pay a small entry fee)

    • Open seasonally from May through October

    • Plan to spend 1–2 hours for a full experience

    Insider Tip:

    Time your visit close to Noon to see the firing of the noon gun, a tradition that’s been upheld daily since 1856!

    Why We Loved It:

    The Halifax Citadel combines rich history, live performances, and unbeatable city views — all in one spot. It’s photogenic and a perfect way to learn more about Canada’s past.
