A splash of summer fun in Wells Gray Country

Summertime is loaded with fun things to do in Wells Gray Country as we walk, hike, paddle, and explore the gateway to Wells Gray Park

Clear skies and hot days have locals and tourists alike seeking ways to cool off, have fun and enjoy the summertime activities of Wells Gray Country.

The area has something for everyone. There is the popular beach at Dutch Lake, with plenty of places to sit in the shade, splash around in the lake, or watch the paddlers and paddleboarders, while a number of rafting companies offer guided trips down the cool waters of the Clearwater River. If you are looking for unique local items, take a stroll through one of the country markets to find some treasures and treats. 

We will be featuring more wilderness, waterfalls and wildlife as we navigate the many sights in Wells Gray Park this summer. Grab your shades, sunblock and stylin' hat (don't forget a good pair of walking shoes), and we will lead the way as our summer issues roll out to tease your taste buds, tickle your flower meadow fancy and test your wilderness adventurous side.
