ACTIVITIES
Pemberton is a year round destination offering
easy access to a variety of Summer and Winter activities
While farming is a mainstay of this
community and it is especially famous for its seed
potatoes, the area is now recognized as a destination
for outdoor recreation. Surrounded by the towering Coast
Mountains, glaciers, aquamarine lakes, and rushing
rivers, Pemberton provides a truly spectacular backdrop
for any visitor.

opportunities for the outdoor sports specialist. Alpine skiing is a

Snowmobiling is a thriving sport in the region offering vast
unspoiled areas, ice caves and panoramic views.
