Hiking
World class hiking opportunities are plentiful at Clayoquot and are customisable to all ages and skill levels, ranging from one hour to full day adventures.
Paths of cedar boardwalk trails lead through ancient forest cathedrals and lush fern gardens, while abandoned roads deep in the rainforest showcase old-growth, new growth and re-forested landscapes, home to abundant wildlife.
For light walkers and families, the River Trail hike follows the banks of the Bedwell River as it courses through rainforest, while the Penny Falls and Ursus Valley hikes offer more challenging adventures with the chance to swim in the waterfalls along Penny Creek and spot wildlife (hint: bears!) in Ursus Valley.
Design-your-own heli-hiking adventures accessing stunning alpine locations are also available.
