Tourism info
Tour Downtown 100 Mile House
100 Mile House remains an important service centre for the South Cariboo and a
base for a multitude of outdoor activities and shopping and dining experiences.
Banking, gas bars, shopping centres, restaurants, postal outlets, pharmacies and
a hospital are some of the many services offered in this commercial hub of the
South Cariboo.
100 Mile House Marsh (very close to trial site)
Enjoy some excellent bird-watching in down-town 100 Mile House. The Marsh
Wildlife Sanctuary is home to the beautiful Ducks Unlimited project with
information and interpretive signs which help to identify the numerous species
of birds. Located west of the highway behind the Visitor Info Centre, this Ducks
Unlimited Project of an eight hectare wetland with about 1.3 km shoreline gets
very busy during spring migration and summer brood rearing period. Easily
accessible, the marsh is a perfect place to just sit back and watch a variety of
birds and wildlife.
Centennial Park and Bridge Creek Falls
A great place for a stroll is the Municipal Park just east of downtown 100 Mile
House. Enjoy a picnic on the banks of Bridge Creek, have fun with the kids at
the playground or tennis courts, or explore the many walking trails within the
park and beyond. Following a level path upstream view beautiful Bridge Creek
Falls which cascade over a face of ancient lava beds which form the mini-canyon
surrounding the waterfall.
Mount Begbie Lookout Tower
This BC Forest Service Fire Lookout tower is positioned 20 km south of 100 Mile
House on Highway 97, perched 1269 m (4187 ft) high atop Mt. Begbie. Operational
during the summer fire season, it is open to visitors. Parking and picnic tables
are located at the base of the lookout, and a short interpretive walk takes you
to the tower and panoramic view of the area.
Fishing
If you feel best with rod and reel in hand, the South Cariboo features some of
BC's best fresh-water sport fishing. With hundreds of lakes in the South Cariboo,
anglers, trollers, and fly-fishers will find something to satisfy all their
tastes. Many lakes are regularly stocked with most native varieties to ensure a
good catch. Summertime brings camping and trout fishing enthusiasts to the
hundreds of lakes in the surrounding area. Highway 24, between 93 Mile and
Little Fort is known as "The Fishing Highway" and provides access to some of the
world's best rainbow trout fishing lakes, plus a large number of BC's best
fishing resorts, guest ranches and wilderness lodges.
Golfing
The region offers contoured fairways and impeccably manicured greens,
stunning countryside landscapes enveloped by post-card scenery, inviting and
shrewdly designed holes that can reward the novice player, as well as the
scratch golfer. There is also a lovely nine hole golf course in 100 Mile
House. The shorter fairways are challengingly narrow, demanding finesse and
good judgment. The clubhouse features a restaurant with patio and a pub, a
fully appointed Pro Shop, a driving net, and a fun mini-putt. So, come to
tee, and play a round in the South Cariboo!
Trails, Trails and more Trails. Your dogs will love it.
