Spruce Lake Backpackers Lodge



Spruce Lake Backpackers Lodge

"There is no better way to experience the 5 Star Wilderness of the South Chilcotin Mountains. In the remote wilderness of the South Chilcotin Mountains, tucked away in the southwest corner of British Columbia. Stars sprinkle the vast night sky as far as the eye can see and towering mountain ranges and the surrounding scenery are never ending. Travel ancient game trails, hear the rush of glacial fed rivers, and see a spectacular array of colour across miles of wild flowering meadows. Experience it for yourself!

While our Ranch is easily reached by vehicle, access to the pristine wilderness of our guide territory is by foot, horse or float plane only. Its remoteness helps preserve the outstanding quality of wilderness. Unlike the granite Coast Ranges to the south, our Chilcotin Mountains have rounded tops and broad U-shaped valleys. The glaciated shale terrain makes summitting challenging yet obtainable, no matter what your method of travel."

  3. Hi James. I just discovered the posting feature on our own blog! Yes, trekking and rock climbing are quite welcome there. I have seen wonderful photos of the trekking in the Chilcotin Mountains. The company that runs Spruce Lake Backpackers actually operates many high-end accommodations as well. You may wish to contact them to find out more...
