Best for curious and independent-minded travelers' --Wall Street Journal

From the Publisher
Lonely Planet's first edition of "British Columbia" offers a candid and informative guide to Canada's most physically diverse province. "British Columbia" includes detailed guides and maps to the region’s best hiking, skiing and snowboarding, as well as insightful tidbits on Canadian pass-times such as hockey and storm watching. As the cliché goes, there aren't many other places on Earth where you can ski in the morning and sail, hike or golf in the afternoon. Fisherman, cyclists, rock-climbers and nature watchers won't be disappointed either, with "British Columbia" providing detailed information for the solo traveler or those interested in special-interest group tours.

• Lodging for all budgets-from rustic campsites to four-star resorts • Activities section, with advice on the best spots to hike and ski • Extensive coverage of parks, both big and small • Tips on seeing grizzlies, killer whales and moose • More than 40 detailed maps, including a Vancouver map section • 16 page section on Alberta’s Banff National Park
