Winter magic on your doorstep – a snowmobile adventure in the Rainbow Range Mountains in British Columbia
A secret haven for snowmobile lovers
Just 30 minutes from Red Cariboo Resort lies one of British Columbia's most remarkable snowmobile areas – Tweedsmuir Provincial Park with its legendary Rainbow Range Mountains. The region gets its name from the exceptionally colourful rock formations that shimmer through the snow even in the depths of winter.
The park features an impressive network of marked trails that wind through dense forests, glide across open alpine meadows, and lead to viewpoints with stunning panoramic views. Whether you're an experienced rider or exploring with your family, the trails provide suitable adventures for everyone. The combination of well-maintained trails, dependable snow conditions, and pristine wilderness makes this area a true insider tip.
From the lodge to the slopes: the ideal starting point
Red Cariboo is the perfect base for snowmobile adventures. With plenty of parking for trailers, guests can easily bring their own snowmobiles. After a hearty breakfast, you can head out on your tour – the quick drive through the snow-covered Cariboo landscape is an experience in itself.
The variety of trails is impressive: gentle forest paths suitable for families or challenging high-altitude routes through pristine powder snow. On clear winter days, the viewpoints provide breathtaking views of the endless mountain range. The colours of the Rainbow Mountains, the bright white of the snow, and the deep blue sky create moments you'll never forget.
After the adventure: relaxing in your private cabin
When the winter sun dips behind the mountains, head back to the Red Cariboo Resort. After a chilly day, your cozy cabin is ready to offer warmth and comfort. Take in the view of the frozen Dean River, enjoy a hot drink to warm up, reflect on your adventures, and start planning your next trip.
The appeal of Red Cariboo Resort is that, from its base, you can stay for several days and discover a new area each day. Detailed information from the Tweedsmuir Ski Club (https://tweedsmuirskiclub.com/snowmobile/) will assist you in planning your route. The close proximity to the trails means shorter travel times and more time on the snow.
Whether you're an experienced rider or a newcomer, Red Cariboo Resort provides the perfect starting point for unforgettable winter adventures. Bring your snowmobile, park your trailer with us, and discover why the Rainbow Mountains are among the top snowmobile destinations in Western Canada.
