Northern British Columbia 1
Northern British Columbia stretches from towering Mount Robson in the east to Haida Gwaii (formerly the Queen Charlottes) in the west, and north to both the Alaskan panhandle and the Yukon border. The area’s rivers and streams run with record-sized salmon and steelhead. Here is an abundance of wildlife – some very rare including the Kermodei or spirit bear and Stone sheep. This is also the land of great scenery, totem poles, heritage towns and villages.
The Great Northern Circle Tour This spectacular road odyssey in Northern British Columbia takes you through untamed wilderness and stunning mountain ranges unique to this immense region.
