Just over 150 years ago, the lure of instant riches changed the face of British Columbia forever, beckoning prospectors and settlers to try to make their fortunes finding gold deposits throughout the province. Today, the rolling hills, mountains, rivers, lakes and wildlife inspire both adventurers and history buffys to set their path along the original Cariboo Waggon Road on the Gold Rush Trail, where one has the opportunity to glimpse pioneer cabins, groves of aspen, wildflower meadows, and serene lakes. Explore historic sites highlighting BC’s rich history, visit a guest ranch, learn about Indigenous history and culture, trek trails on mountain bike or on foot, spot local wildlife and continue along the historic path of the Gold Rush Trail at your own pace.
