Explore Clearwater, BC

Whether you are visiting Beautiful British Columbia for the first time or exploring your own backyard, Clearwater rewards every kind of traveler.

Spend a slow afternoon at Dutch Lake, where you can grab ice cream right on the water and watch the afternoon light stretch across the surface. Stop by the food truck near town for a casual bite before heading back up the mountain. For those who want to go further, Dunn Lake is the move: quieter, wilder, and worth the drive.

Unwind in a canoe, hike to the Wells Gray Park waterfalls, or simply let the pace of the North Thompson slow you down. However you choose to spend your time here, the area has a way of making it feel like enough.
