When you first arrive at Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge, you are struck by how secluded and peaceful the place is. The lodge, which is only reachable by boat, seaplane, or helicopter, is tucked away in a private reserve that seems to be a world apart from the daily grind. The travel itself is an integral part of the experience, providing breathtaking overhead views of the spectacular landscapes of Vancouver Island and the sense of adventure that comes with knowing you're going somewhere truly off the beaten road.

But the amazing variety of events Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge has to offer is what draws people in. The lodge serves as a starting point for an endless array of outdoor experiences for all skill and interest levels. There is something for everyone, including heart-pounding sports like horseback riding, kayaking, and zip-lining through the forest canopy, as well as guided wildlife tours where you may see bears, whales, and eagles in their natural habitats. The lodge offers guided walks through the rainforest, fishing trips in glistening rivers, and meditation paddle boarding on the serene waters of the Sound for those seeking a closer relationship with nature. Every activity has been thoughtfully chosen to offer the right amount of adventure, knowledge, and time spent in the great outdoors.
