Golden Ears Park
exclusive access
One of British Columbia’s largest parks, Golden Ears is an exceptional destination for all sorts of recreation. The park features three large campgrounds and an extensive system of hiking and horseback-riding trails. Alouette Lake, meanwhile, is a popular spot for swimming, windsurfing, water-skiing, canoeing, boating, and fishing.
The landscape of Golden Ears Park offers an excellent example of B.C.’s coastal western hemlock forest. The park’s extensive backcountry is mountainous and extremely rugged.
Special instructions
Protect bears by securing all food and garbage when away from your camp and at night
Bears are destroyed every year due to campers neglecting to properly manage their attractants. It is illegal to leave food and/or garbage unsecured and unattended. Store all food and scented items in a vehicle, hard-sided trailer, or bear-proof locker. Campers failing to ensure their camp is secure of attractants may be evicted from the park and issued a violation ticket under the BC Wildlife Act. Please do your part to ensure the safety of your family, fellow campers, and the local bears, by keeping a clean camp!
