FISHING

The Homathko River has some of the best fly fishing in British Columbia... possible in all of Canada! Glacial runoff feeds this river with fresh water from the mountains, making it a perfect spot for many varieties of trout and spawning salmon.

Take a river rafting trip from halfway up the Homathko and enjoy a relaxing day of fishing, drifting in the gentle current down the river back towards the Homathko Camp. Stop along the way at the sand bars for a little fishing, all while taking in the majesty of the tallest mountains in British Columbia surrounding you.

HIKING

Southwestern British Columbia is considered a "temperate rainforest". Nowhere is this more true than the Bute Inlet and Sunshine Coast area. Homathko has many trails that range in difficulty from a stroll through the forest to a day-long hike up from the base of Bute Mountain to the Homathko Glacier.

The mountains in the Homathko region are the tallest in British Columbia. For those desiring a tougher challenge, Bute Mountain is considered by climbers to be one of the 10 most challenging climbs in the world. With 9,000 vertical feet, it has the tallest vertical rise of any mountain in North America.

WILDLIFE WATCHING

This unique landscape is home to many different types of local wildlife, including grizzley bears, black bears, elk, and many different types of birds.

KAYAKING

The Homathko River is a great place for kayaking and canoeing. If a challenge is more your style, the north end of the river is a world-class Class V Kayaking area. The trip down from Tatlayoko Lake to the head of Bute Inlet takes 4 days, and includes two portages.

But if you just want to drift down the river on a lazy afternoon, you can do that too!

RELAX AND ENJOY...

If you're simply looking for the most peaceful place in the world, you've found it... watch the river drift by in a lounge chair with a good book, take an afternoon siesta under the sun, or just sit and watch as the mountains tower over you...
