6 stars if possible! The District of Tumbler Ridge produce an incredibly useful tourist guide, complete with a pull out map detailing all of the different hiking trails. Such an innovation! We (UK tourists) have travelled for the last 8 years throughout Africa, South America, Central America and now North America and this is absolutely the most useful tourist information we have ever seen! We LOVED our few days in the Tumbler Ridge area (staying on for longer than planned!). It’s such a beautiful area and we enjoyed it so much more than over-crowded Jasper/Banff (ugh!).

Stunning area full of interesting geological formations, waterfalls and Dinosaur tracks. I spent a day hiking several trails and left a few to hopefully one day return to. The visitor center is a great resource for trails and activities.
