Welcome to the South Cariboo region of British Columbia, Canada …
This
is a vast and beautiful area that reaches all the way from the Interlakes
District of Highway 24, "The Fishing Highway" in the east
… to the sparsely populated wilderness of the Fraser River
Plateau in the west. Visit 70 Mile House … 100 Mile House …
and the 108 Mile Ranch. There's the Canim Lake area … Clinton
… Lac La Hache … Lone Butte … and so much more awaiting
you. The
Cariboo's first offering was gold. It was a land born of dreams
... dreams of discovery, gold dust and instant riches. Golden imagery
still pervades our psyche. Golden hay fields swaying gently in an
afternoon breeze -- forest meadows filled in spring with golden
flowers -- in autumns lazy light the golden leaves of aspen -- sunshine
shimmering golden off a still lake's surface -- and golden sunsets
painted in the western sky. Today our four-season destination offers
a lifetime of memorable BC experiences with an endless list of outdoor
activities for the entire family. Whether
you travel with an RV, motor home or car, the South Cariboo is just
a breathtaking 5 hour drive from Vancouver, BC and the Vancouver
International airport. The South Cariboo invites you to enjoy exceptional
water recreation on countless lakes … canoeing, boating, swimming
and fantastic fresh water fishing. Explore our multi-use trails,
play a round of golf, discover the diversity of our back-country
wilderness hiking, biking or ATVing or just sit back and relax.
This is cattle country so experience the spirit of the "Wild
West" on horseback - come as a tourist, go home a cowboy! Our
crisp, sunny winters provide the perfect setting for x-country skiing,
snowmobiling, ice fishing, dog sledding, skiing, snowboarding, skating
and snowshoeing. Here you can immerse yourself in the great BC outdoors
where wildlife is abundant, the air is clean, and the waters are
pure. The
visual and performing arts are very active. Each year there are
a number of art shows, concerts, festivals and theatrical productions.
Just as the areas first visitors came looking for treasure, so you
might want to browse the South Cariboo shops for something unique,
something practical, your own golden find! There are some excellent
South Cariboo artists, writers and photographers. Look for their
work; you will not be disappointed. 100 Mile House, and the South Cariboo, invite you to fulfill your dream vacation in British Columbia, Canada! Our knowledgeable staff at the South Cariboo Visitor Centre will be happy to assist you in planning your holidays with accommodation, travel, recreation and tour information.
