East of Vancouver, British Columbia is home to two distinct areas: The Fraser Valley and the Fraser Canyon.
Here, prairie-like vistas of the valley give way to soaring mountains with alpine meadows, glacial lakes, and deep, rocky canyons that are home to the mighty Fraser River.
The Fraser Valley is all about agriculture, thanks to its patchwork of barns, dairies, and fields flanked by steep mountains. Here, you’ll find anything farm fresh, plus wineries, microbreweries, golf courses, sturgeon and salmon fishing.

Experience gold rush history at Yale Historic Site, cross the canyon at Hell’s Gate, and raft the mighty Fraser River, which has been an important source of food, transportation, and a trading route for Indigenous Peoples for centuries.
