GETAWAY TO THE NORTH CARIBOO? This is one of the loveliest seasons of the year to bask in its
splendor. We're enjoying beautiful weather, clean air, and the quiet of
the country, and we'd love to share it with you. Winter activities in the
North Cariboo are endless – outdoor activities include cross-country and
downhill skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and snow shoeing. We also
offer wonderful holiday events, shopping, dining, and
accommodations.

02 BARKERVILLE
CHRISTMAS You'll love Barkerville's Old Fashion Christmas celebration, held the last two weekends before Christmas, on December 13-14 and 20-21. Enjoy carol singing at the romantic and intimate St. Saviour's Church, delicious home baking from the Wendle House or Goldfields Bakery, and unique and quality Christmas shopping at the Mason & Daly General Store and Mrs. Neate's Sewing Room. And you won't want to miss a sleigh or dog sled ride! [more] |

03 BILLY BARKER CASINO HOTEL A visit to the Billy Barker Casino Hotel is a highlight of any visit to the North Cariboo. The Casino Hotel is a place to relax and rejuvenate, enjoy great food, and experience the thrill of gaming. The "Billy" is the most-photographed building in the North Cariboo, with lovely sightseeing balconies, an illuminated paddlewheel, and an unusual pilot house and smokestack at its crown, five stories up.

04 KELLY AND KING HOUSES The Kelly and King Bed and Breakfast Houses are the perfect places to embrace a peaceful winter's break. These charming B&B hotels are in Barkerville, the only historic site in Canada that permits overnight guests. After a glorious drive past snowcapped mountains and a clear blue sky, settle down with a hot chocolate, a soak in a claw-foot tub with a warm book, or sweet conversation over a game of rummy.

05 TROLL SKI RESORT Leave the crowds behind and enjoy the fresh mountain air and wide open runs at Troll Ski Resort. The powder is light and the weather is fine at Troll, a great hill for skiers of all ages and levels. If you like to ski a fun hill with groomed runs and a gorgeous view, Troll is for you. Or, if you want to challenge yourself in untracked powder, check out the rest of the mountain – we think you'll be glad you came. [more] |

06 WELLS HOTEL Big changes at the Wells Hotel – and an incredible winter deal! The Wells Hotel, a heritage country inn near Barkerville Historic Town and Bowron Lakes Park, has hired new management and completed major improvements in 2003. And great food is back! "We're going into 2004 better than ever," says Heather Hartridge, the hotel's manager. "We're likely the finest place in the region for a romantic escape or family weekend now, and we're an exceptional location for a business retreat, too." [more] |
