Eden on Chilko Lake

Spin Cast Fishing: There are big fish to be caught on Chilko Lake; Up to 10lb bull trout and 6lb rainbows have been known to be hauled out of this 84km aquatic masterpiece. Anglers are encouraged to practice responsible 'catch and release fishing' as we would like to our best to preserve our environment and its ecosystems.

Please check the current BC fishing regulations before you leave for your Eden on Chilko Lake holiday. Fishing licenses are available for purchase at the Lodge.

Fly Fishing: Chilko River boasts some of the finest fly-fishing in North America. Tag along with our resident outdoor guide or head out on your own for a day of fishing for Trout and Dolly Varden. Rods and tackle are available at the aquatic centre located within the fitness centre complex.

White Water rafting: Chilko River offers two different rafting adventures; tease your curiosity with some moderate yet exciting exploration near the mouth of the river or take on the longest stretch of class IV rapids on the continent - Lava Canyon on Chilko River's "White Mile". Send your heart rate rocketing on this wilderness encased waterway. If you would like to experience rafting as part of your Eden on Chilko Lake holiday, please notify us at time of booking.

Please call 1-877-346-9378 for information on white water rafting adventures at Eden on Chilko Lake.

Horseback riding: While horseback riding at Eden on Chilko Lake, you will find yourself on towering peaks with views of the valley where Chilko River runs into the mouth of Chilko Lake. Because Chilko Lake is nestled within BC's Coastal Mountains, our wranglers will have you exploring the Alpine region shortly after departing the Resort.

Horses are sensitive animals; they are aware of the mind-set of their rider and respond to a clear and confident mind. Understanding their thought process and fine-tuning your cues can be an invigorating and enjoyable confidence-building experience.

Tennis: Our clay tennis court is located at the rear of our main lodge and is exclusively available to Eden on Chilko Lake guests. Tennis rackets are available at the fitness centre.

Kayaking & Canoeing: Chilko Lake is sapphire in color and remains transparent up to 20+ feet from the shore. Whether you are looking down or gazing around, the view is spectacular. Weather conditions are carefully monitored in the aquatic centre. If the winds pick up, guests can still enjoy kayaking on Chilko River - ideal as a post spa adventure.

Wildflower Hikes: Adjacent to the Lodge is the valley's gem, Ts'yl-os Provincial Park. Here you'll find an assortment of trails framed with mountain meadows and alpine wildflowers. Well marked trails such as Tullin Mountain Trail make for an easy day hike (7.5 mi/ 12 km return) and you can return to the lodge just in time for dinner.

**Please note: Ts'yl-os is a wilderness park and offers limited services. Hikers should be experienced or traveling with someone who is.
