| The
Islands - Vancouver Island and the BC Gulf Islands |
 |
With
their ancient forests, rocky shorelines and
miles of beaches teeming with marine life,
the Northern Gulf Islands are remote, serene
places that soothe the soul. Blessed with
a balmy climate and an idyllic landscape,
the Southern Gulf Islands are each unique
in character, but share a gentle, bucolic
charm. |

The
Central Coast will delight adventurers, with
the Discovery Coast ferry service offering
a circle tour through some of the province's
most beautiful terrain. Travellers can disembark,
explore some territory, then reboard the ferry
to another remote destination in the largely
undiscovered Discovery Coast Passage. |

Okanagan - Okanagan Valley and the Shuswap |
|
You
can't really say you know British Columbia
until you've travelled this area, certainly
one of the liveliest in the province. A series
of gentle mountain ranges rolls between the
Thompson Plateau in the west and the Shuswap
Highlands to the east, then rises dramatically
in the Selkirk and Monashee Mountains. |

Region |

Dominated
by mountains and water, the Kootenays region
of British Columbia is cradled by the Monashee
Mountains to the west, and the Selkirk and
Purcell Mountains to the east. Between these
ranges are the enormous Arrow and Kootenay
Lakes, and the major wilderness parks of Valhalla
and Kokanee Glacier. |

The
Bella Coola Valley is of historical significance
as a trade corridor between coastal and interior
Native groups. The Chilcotin Plateau east
of the Bella Coola Valley can rightfully claim
to be the true bastion of the range rider
in BC, with vast expanses of the Chilcotin
being worked by large ranching outfits. |

Nestled
up under the Alaska Panhandle, the North West
is filled with both unique wilderness experiences
and the standard British Columbia fare of
deep fjords, dramatic canyons, sheer mountains,
rivers thick with salmon, old-growth forests,
and an abundance of wildlife. |
