Tumbler Ridge tourism

It is a testament to the passion, resilience and determination of its people that Tumbler Ridge has become what it is today. Over the course of almost four decades, many thousands of volunteer hours have been spent carving expansive trail networks and other features out of virgin forest, alpine meadows and historic pioneer routes. These trails have been painstakingly maintained over the years so that newcomers, families and intrepid explorers alike can set their own pace to experience our extraordinary wilderness setting.
