THE WEST COAST AND NOOTKA SOUND

We lived in Gold River for many years. A 1.5-hour drive west of Campbell River on Hwy 28, Gold River is a picturesque small community with golfing, fishing, swimming, camping, caving, and mountain climbing. www.village.goldriver.bc.ca

Strathcona Provincial Park is in the middle of Vancouver Island and accessible from Hwy 28. From nature walks to world-class mountaineering, Strathcona has something for everyone. http://www.env.gov.bc.ca/bcparks/explore/parkpgs/strathco.html

On the way, Strathcona Park Lodge & Outdoor Education Centre is halfway along the highway from Campbell River to Gold River. Here you will find access to the park and lots of supervised outdoor activities for kids and adults. www.strathcona.bc.ca

MV Uchuck III is a coastal passenger freighter that departs from the wharf at Gold River. You may see whales, sea lions, and otters, but you will definitely see the most breathtaking scenery! www.mvuchuck.com
