Here's an awe-inspiring train ride from Prince Rupert to Terrace, British Columbia. With comfortable seating, panoramic windows, and on-board amenities, it's a comfortable and enjoyable journey.
Settle into your seat and prepare to be enchanted by the rugged beauty of the Skeena River, tracing its winding path through majestic mountains and ancient forests. Marvel at the engineering of the trestles and bridges that seamlessly blend into the natural landscape. Catch glimpses of the region's diverse flora, from towering cedar trees to pretty wildflowers. Keep your binoculars handy for potential wildlife sightings -- bald eagles soaring overhead, black bears foraging in the forests, and elusive mountain goats scaling the rocky cliffs.
As you pass through Kleanza Creek Provincial Park, cascading waterfalls and lush greenery create a symphony of natural beauty. Traverse deep canyons and verdant valleys and pass ancient First Nations settlements and pioneer landmarks.
A snack bag is included.
From Terrace, head back to Prince Rupert by motorcoach -- a route acclaimed as one of the top five scenic drives in British Columbia. Pause in Exchamsiks Provincial Park to marvel at the beauty of its glacial waters, crystal-clear streams and shimmering pools. Stroll along the park's trails, breathing in the crisp mountain air and immersing yourself in the tranquility of nature.
