Amid evolving cross-border dynamics, more Canadians are trading trips abroad for adventures at home, re-discovering the beauty in their own backyard. For those who want to discover Canada’s extraordinary landscapes, there’s no better place to discover them than Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge.

A scenic, 45-minute seaplane flight from Vancouver delivers guests to 600 acres of pristine wilderness along the Bedwell River, in Vancouver Island’s Clayoquot Sound, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve. Set against old-growth rainforest and rugged coastline, this lodge is part of the Baillie Lodges portfolio, which owns and operates hotels in Australia, New Zealand, Chile, and Canada.
