This Canadian province lives on the westernmost coast of the country and offers expansive views of the Pacific Ocean and Canadian Rockies. Check out these spots to experience your favorite winter sports, adventures and the changing of the seasons during your next visit to beautiful British Columbia.

Victoria

Visit the oldest city in the Pacific Northwest, and the capital of British Columbia, to discover coastal culture, beautiful historic landmarks and a diverse art scene. Located at the southernmost end of Vancouver Island, Victoria’s temperate climate also offers a year-round playground for adventurers.

Vancouver

You have to visit the largest city in British Columbia during your trip to Canada. Vancouver is an expansive seaport city located on the eastern side of the Georgia Strait, just a ferry ride away from Victoria. Here, you’ll find beautiful skyscrapers, many cultural events and impeccable views of the surrounding Coastal Mountains.

Kootenay Rockies

Just east of Vancouver lives the Kootenay Rockies, a mountain town and thrill-seeking paradise. Head to this Canadian town for awe-inspiring hikes, snowshoe trails and even heliskiing. If you’re up for a challenge, hike to Paint Pots and see three pools filled with reddish orange iron oxide, an incredible natural phenomenon and believed by the First Nations to be animal spirits who lived in these ponds.

Okanagan Lake

Experience British Columbia at Okanagan Lake. This beautiful, glacial lake is surrounded by lush vineyards and orchards, perfect for those warm, Canadian afternoons. Afterwards, head to the lake with your family to enjoy a smooth boat ride and picnic while taking in incredible views of the valley.
