5 Day Hikes Around Golden, BC

Go to the mountains, they say, to get lost and find your soul. Scramble the shoulders of giants here among the ancient crags of the Purcells and their younger sisters, the Rocky Mountains.

Surrounded by six of the most stunning national parks in Canada (Banff, Glacier, Jasper, Kootenay, Mount Revelstoke, and Yoho), Golden is an ideal place to strike out on the trail. With glaciers, forest glades, and expansive rocky vistas, here are 5-day hike ideas for your itinerary:

Gorman Lake

Hike to a beautiful alpine lake through a forest, across a boggy section with boardwalks and a climb through a rock field. Watch for wildlife including grizzly and black bears, particularly in the late summer and fall. The lake is stocked with rainbow trout.
