Embracing deserts, wetlands, forests and beaches, from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, BC’s beautifully varied terrain lends itself to lends itself to all kinds of recreational pursuits as residents and visitors alike explore this interesting land. From motorcoach tours to llama treks and everything in between, it is no surprise that tourism is a major industry for British Columbia. Whatever the interest, it can be done here in BC.
WINTER & SNOW SPORTS
Situated on the other side of the Rocky Mountains from such famous towns as Banff and Jasper, resort destinations such as Kicking Horse, Panorama, Kimberly, Fernie and Nelson offer world-class skiing with a fraction of the crowds that Alberta's Rockies draw; however, they are far from being undiscovered. With the 2010 Winter Olympics, Whistler Blackcomb has been thrust onto the world stage and is no longer a hidden gem.
Those looking for plenty of powder minus the crowds should visit the Okanagan. Renowned as a summer destination, Sun Peaks holds its own in the winter and is in fact the second largest ski area in BC and the third largest in Canada, with 1,488 ha (3,678 acres) of terrain.
Or leave the commercial hills aside and venture into the backcountry for pristine locales. Heli-tours, snowmobile tours and snow cat operators can take visitors far from the madding crowd where they can carve up untouched, powdery slopes.
There's no shortage of activities for winter-time adventure seekers. Look for snow kiting, dog sledding, ice-climbing, and ice fishing—most of which are offered province wide.
