Visit one of the most spectacular forests in the world. Some of the trees have 14-—to 15-foot-wide trunks and can be 1,000 years old!

This spectacular section of the old-growth rainforest is within the traditional territory of the Pacheedaht First Nation and has recently been declared off-limits to logging. Avatar Grove is also home to “Canada’s Gnarliest Tree .”This mammoth cedar will be certain to impress!
