The Campbell River is a user-friendly river to experience the joy of catch and release. Fish for trout year round and pink salmon later in the summer.

ROWING CHINOOK

The main fishing spots are easy to reach and the sandy pool sees anglers of all ages congregate and jockey for position to cast out lures or flies.

It began in 1924 with a group of anglers who returned to Campbell River each year in pursuit of the elusive Tyee, a Chinook salmon, 30 pounds or larger.

Where the Quinsam River enters the Campbell at times will have a heavy concentration of anglers. Between the bridges, is where most of the action takes place.

Tyee fishing is done quietly in a small, classic row boat. No motors are allowed in the Tyee pool. The rower will slip the boat into the currents and eddies while keeping a basic plug or spoon beating in the current.

In late September, the coho will be running and offers big action on a drift or fly rod. During the summer, Echo Lake can be fished with a fly or lure. Echo Lake is stocked twice a year with catchable sized trout. Traditionalists will want to check out the Tyee Club of BC located on Spit Road.

Caught between July and September

Whatever way you choose enjoy the waters, make sure you have your fishing license up to date. For more information go to www.gofishbc.com.

www.westcoastgrizzlybeartours.com Located at Discovery Harbour Marina in Campbell River, British Columbia

Caught between September and October

If a fish is boated and weighs 30 pounds or more, the catch is recorded and the angler becomes a member of the Tyee Club.

Campbell River is a Mountain Biker’s Paradise

The Beaver Lodge Lands are suitable for any level of fitness, or ability. Based in the middle of town and easily accessed from many points along Dogwood Street, you will find wide gravel paths, smooth and flowy single track, and a few tight and technical trails.

With hundreds of kilometers of amazing single track within minutes of town, it’s no wonder so many mountain bikers are attracted to Campbell River.

The Pump House Trail network is at the North end of town and includes lots of nice single track, some exposed rock bluffs and a bit of smooth double track through the trees. Most of these trails will be a bit much for the true beginner, but if you’re ready for a small challenge then the Pump House will suit you well. One of the original trails in this system is “Dean Martin” which makes the perfect single track connector from town to the

You can take the family for a casual ride deep in the woods, you can ride steep and technical trails, or you can put together an all day epic loop that will remind you why you live here.

ADVENTURE GUIDE 2018 – campbellrivermirror.com


If your interests lean more towards the technical riding then there are many black diamond trails that will challenge your climbing and descending skills, not to mention your fitness. You can also assemble a loop that gives you a bit of everything including beautiful views of Discovery Passage and Quadra Island, all the while riding through some of the lushest forest and best single track anywhere. Whether it’s a one-hour ride or five-hour ride, you’ll love the variety. If you’re an adrenalin junkie then you will want to ride Menzies Mountain. This more recently built network is just ten minutes north of town and offers up some steep terrain where you will find a mix of natural and man made features. Menzies does have shuttle access if you have a 4x4, but if you prefer to earn your turns then approximately 90 minutes of steep climbing will have you at the top. These trails are all black diamond and not for the faint of heart.

Maps of the main trail networks are available at the local bike shops along with great trail advice. Drop in and get some trail tips, or join one of their group rides.

Snowden Demonstration Forest. The Snowden Forest trails include almost 100 km of single track, ideal for all levels of rider. The Lost Frog Loop and the Lost Lake Loop are made up of green and blue trails and are very suitable for a casual spin or a ride with the family.

In addition to these mountain bike areas, we also have Woods Creek, Area 51, Quadra Island and a couple cool Dirt Jump trails that are being developed rapidly.

charting your own marine journey

popular-the Sayward Forest Canoe/ portage route is a 50 kilometre (30 mile) circuit encompassing 11 lakes, and takes approximately 3-4 days to complete the full circuit.

Campbell River is the gateway to the Discovery Islands group, an unparalleled paddling area. There’s nothing quite like a saltwater kayak for exploring remote islands and uninhabited coves.

We recommend doing the route counterclockwise from summer to early fall. Numerous B.C. Forest Service Recreation sites are located along the route that provide adequate overnight camping facilities.

This quiet mode of travel often allows you to get closer to marine and land wildlife than if you were on foot or in a motorized craft. Bring your own kayak or rent one from a local shop, lessons and guides are available. You can chart your own journey or sign up for an eco-tour. Canoeing is also

Popular put-in spots are: The Campbell River Spit, Gosling Bay on Campbell Lake, Morton Lake, Strathcona Dam, Loveland Bay, Forbes Landing and McIvor Lake. Stand up paddle boarding is also a fun, relaxing way to play on the water. So get out there and enjoy nature!

presence of black bears in this area. Access the trailhead from the south end of Buttle Lake. Crest Mountain Trail (10 kms) This physically demanding trail is steep with an elevation change of 1300 metres, but the views of Kings Peak and Elkhorn Mountain make it well worth the effort.

choose your course Storey Creek Golf Club - just south of Campbell River on Highway 19A, is consistently ranked in the top 10 public courses in BC. Rainbow’s End Golf Course & Club House, just outside Sayward, is a fun little 9-hole track that has the casual, laid back attitude of a tortoise basking in the sun – and that’s a compliment. Gold River Golf & Country Club - nestled along the banks of the river that shares its name, is another one of the distinctly, “hard to focus on your game with all this beauty

around,” courses the region has to offer. The Campbell River Golf and Country Club is the only course within the municipal boundaries of Campbell River itself and is under under new ownership. The course and clubhouse is getting a major overhaul and redesign by Graham Cook. Stay tuned for good things. Quadra Island Golf – one of the newest courses on the West Coast is ready to go and are well worth the short ferry trip. Let them know you’re coming and they’ll pick you up on the other side.
