BC Adventure Travel: Explore the Wild Side of British Columbia, Canada

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.

    Hiking The Bruce Trail At Inglis Falls Conservation Area

    Discover the breathtaking Inglis Falls Conservation Area, one of Ontario’s most iconic natural attractions. Known as “the best waterfalls in the area,” Inglis Falls is admired in every season. This 18-metre cascade was formed when the Sydenham River met the dramatic edge of the Niagara Escarpment, creating a deep gorge and spectacular scenery. Access to the base of the falls is strictly prohibited, but the views from above are unforgettable.

    Bruce Trail Niagara Escarpment

    Situated within the 200-hectare conservation area, Inglis Falls provides direct access to the Bruce Trail Niagara Escarpment. Additionally, more than 7 km of hiking trails surround the site, offering paths of various difficulty levels. On clear days, sweeping views extend across the valley, the City of Owen Sound, and its harbour. Birdwatching, geological features like potholes, and over 20 species of ferns can also be enjoyed.

    Hiking Ontario’s Escarpment and Waterfalls

    Moreover, Inglis Falls is only one of three stunning waterfalls encircling Owen Sound. Families will find picnic areas, visitor information, and washrooms, while history enthusiasts will appreciate the preserved remains of a grist mill. For accessibility, a viewing platform was designed so everyone can experience the falls. Because of its beauty and year-round appeal, this destination should not be missed by any traveler exploring Canada’s escarpment and waterfalls.

    Great article Sonya. It was really interesting to learn how you packed for your trans Canada hike. I was also happy to see some similarities in what we pack (as reassurance, that my packing is on the right track). We always pack a pair of camp shoes too, which are usually sport sandals. We also pick a light weight 3-person tent, for the same reasons you did. I just upgraded my sleeping pad to one that is still light weight but has a higher R-value and is thicker. It is SOOOO dreamy and comfortable. For navigation we have the Garmin Inreach Mini and also use the Gaia GPS app and always have our back up paper map.

    I feel so fortunate to live just 10 minutes from the shores of Lake Ontario. Jeff and I often set out for walks along different stretches of Toronto’s waterfront, where the bustle of the city gives way to a sense of calm. These moments by the lake bring a welcome serenity to our days. And, the wildlife makes it even more special. On this walk, we spotted a graceful heron, a busy beaver, and flocks of geese and ducks enjoying the water.
