The 7 Best Nature & Wildlife Areas in Prince Rupert, Canada

December 11, 2021 Emerita Lamoureux

Situated off the shores of continental British Columbia on secluded Kaien Island, Prince Rupert is steeped in the history of the Pacific Northwest. The area is the heart of Tsimshian Nation and is home also to other First Nations, including Haida, Gitksan and Nisga'a people. Visitors can learn more about the land's original inhabitants at the First Nations Carving Shed or by taking a guided tour of Prince Rupert's impressive Totem Pole collection, featuring both Tsimshian and Haida works.

Butze Rapids Park and Trail

Reviewed By Calgary_Can_Travel

Well maintained trail with plenty of places to stop and view nature. The rapids are caused by the tide coming in and were very odd to see as it looked just like a river. Beautiful view around every corner.

Tall Trees Trail

Reviewed By corinae585 - Houston, Canada

Loved hiking this trail. It is a good work out and does have a some steep inclines. The trail is well marked and easy to navigate. The view from the top is breath taking. Head past the first bench for another two minutes. It’s well worth it.
