Walking in British Columbia

The walks in this guidebook allow walkers to explore North America's wild and beautiful British Columbia. From the heights of the Canadian Rockies to the Pacific coast, British Columbia contains a wide range of peoples, terrain and opportunities for exploration. It has 637 provincial parks, six national parks, wide regions of protected land and age-old forests. The routes are a mix of longer mountain trails in true wilderness and shorter walks.
