Region: Terrace/Kitimat/Prince Rupert
The Terrace/Kitimat/Prince Rupert area is truly a fisherman’s paradise. Millions of salmon return to the Skeena River each year and northern lakes and rivers team with trout, char or grayling. The area is also home to the Kermode “Spirit Bear.” Lucky visitors may get a glimpse of a Kermode on highways or back roads around Terrace. So take your time through the region and watch out for bears!
First Nations communities welcome visitors to the villages that have been their home for hundreds of years. Several communities have interpretive centers such as the BC Parks Visitor Center in Nisga’a Memorial Lava Bed Provincial Park. It showcases Canada’s most recent volcanic eruption and is the meeting point for the Crater Trail hiking tour.
