Nature in Boundary

Take a Walk On the Wild Side

Nature in Boundary Country isn’t just scenery, it’s an invitation. Paddle quiet lakes, hike golden larch forests, snowshoe through peaceful glades or cast a line in crisp mountain streams. With four distinct seasons, abundant wildlife and endless trails, nature is always in season and beckoning for an adventure.

Activities

Step into the wild, any time of year. Hike or cycle scenic rail trails, snowshoe alpine paths, watch birds at sunrise or paddle across calm waters. Fish for rainbow trout in spring, photograph fall larches or track wildlife in winter snow. From riverside meadows to mountain viewpoints, Boundary Country is built for nature lovers.

Two people enjoy a river float on inflatable tubes in a clear lake surrounded by forested mountains under a sunny blue sky, with a few others and sailboats visible in the background.

Beat the Heat

Jump right in, the water’s fine! Splash about. Go for a float or tip your friends into the drink. Watch eagles soar the thermals above the rivers. Experience good, family fun in the sun.

Know Before You Go

Safety and Regulations: Pack for changing conditions and carry the essentials like water, maps and layers. Respect wildlife by keeping your distance and storing food securely. Stick to marked trails and check in at visitor centres for updates on weather, trail status and seasonal access to parks or protected areas. Always let someone at home know what your plans are.
