Haida Gwaii - On the Edge of the World

Haida Gwaii - On the Edge of the World


For years a visit to Haida Gwaii has been on our wish list!  This archipelago off the Northwest Coast of British Columbia is remote, incredibly beautiful, relatively untouched and rich in Haida culture.  The fascinating history of the Haida people goes back to the great floods and the first tree.  The islands have been nicknamed the Galapagos of the North because of the distinct flora and fauna that have evolved over thousands of years....and the beaches are amazing!

We are fascinated by this awe-inspiring place, home to Gwaii Haanas National Park and Haida Heritage Site and honoured to be visiting.  To make our vacation extra special, we have booked a four day tour with Moresby Explorers.  The icing on the cake - our daughter is working as a Guide for Moresby.  We are excited to visit with her and learn more about the place she currently calls home.

Cycle Tour Haida Gwaii


Our plan is to cycle from our home in Surrey to Port Hardy on Vancouver Island and then make our way to the islands by ferry.  Thanks again for your interest in sharing our bike tours with us....as always your support and positive feedback help us up those hills!  I must confess the hills do seem to be getting much steeper with each passing year.

Our trip to the Edge of the World begins on July 3rd..... 


Here's a short video that will give you a feel for this amazing place.
