The Chilko Experience Wilderness Resort - Canadaβs Premiere Luxury Wilderness Lodge
Escape to the unspeakably secret, untamed and rugged heart of British Columbia, where you can walk among wildlife, drift on crystal waters beneath ancient glaciers and wander through silent forests as old as time. Far, far away from the crowds, the noise, the 9-5... adventure awaits.
Our secluded log cabin hideaway will become your home for an unforgettable wilderness experience.
We are 200 miles from the nearest grocery store, 50 miles from a post office and 40 miles to the power grid, but at night you can touch the stars. The vastness and purity of the area will overwhelm your senses upon arrival.
Your intimate, untamed adventure starts here.
βThe Chilko Experience has had a single dream since conception: to connect friends and family to nature at the highest possible level. Everything else we do is to support that vision.β
