Billy Barker’s legendary gold strike set off a billion dollar industrial revolution that built a province! Today, the historic town of Barkerville, stands as testament to BC’s origins. It was declared a National Historic Site of Canada back in 1924. It’s one of the largest living-history museums in North America. Explore more than 125 heritage buildings, period displays, a theatre performance, restaurants, shops and more.
Discover ‘Canada’s Waterfall Park’ with a visit to Wells Gray Provincial Park located in Clearwater. Witness a number of waterfalls including the iconic Helmcken Falls – the fourth highest in Canada. Enjoy panoramic views as the water plunges 141 metres into the canyon below. Also learn about the settlers who once traversed these lands while you experience historic Hat Creek Ranch and more!
