Travelling the Trail, you’ll experience many fascinating “nuggets” of history as you voyage through some of the most spectacular natural beauty in the world, meeting some of the friendliest people along the way.

You’re about to embark on a journey along the Gold Rush Trail that gold seekers who had “gold fever” travelled since the late 1850s who had “gold fever,” hoping to strike gold. Both men and women journeyed into the great wilderness of British Columbia due mainly to the stories they had heard about “easy gold.” Though only a handful struck it rich finding the precious metal, many of these early pioneers helped build roads, railways and bridges and established the great cattle ranches and timber enterprises in British Columbia’s early history.
