The Outdoor Recreation Council of BC is inviting British Columbians to celebrate the fifth annual BC Trails Day on Saturday, June 7th.

Held every year on the first Saturday in June, the event highlights the importance of the province’s 40,000 kilometres of managed trails — not just for recreation, but also for health, tourism, and community connection.

Last year saw more than 60 events across the province, from guided hikes to trail clean-ups and family barbecues.

“Trails connect people through shared rides or hikes, peaceful time in nature, or hands-on stewardship,” said Louise Pedersen, Executive Director of the Outdoor Recreation Council of BC.

“BC Trails Day is an annual celebration of the benefits trails bring to our lives and a chance to recognize the volunteers who care for them. It’s also a call to step outside and be part of your recreation community.”

Organizers are once again calling on local groups, Indigenous communities, and municipalities to get involved.
