25 Weeks of Adventure

Welcome to the 25 Weeks Of Adventure Series!

25 Weeks Of Adventure is an opportunity to celebrate the beauty of nature, forge new connections, and create lasting memories. We’ve teamed up with passionate partners who share our love for the outdoors, and they’re ready to lead you on thrilling escapades and rejuvenating trips.

Join one of our guided activities on Discoverparks.ca or be inspired by our 25 Weeks of Adventure BINGO card and explore the outdoors at your own pace.

Join us to stay connected to nature all year round!

As the leaves fall and the snowflakes start to dance, we’ve got an exciting lineup of outdoor events across the province, spanning over 25 weeks from October to March.
Our goal? To help you, People of BC Parks, reignite your sense of wonder and stay connected with the great outdoors during the cozy, sometimes moody, fall and winter months.

So, gear up, bundle up, and get ready to uncover the hidden wonders of BC Parks. Whether it’s rain, snow, or a sunny day, we’re here to prove that every season is the perfect season for adventure!

Let’s make the upcoming fall and winter your most unforgettable yet. Are you up for the challenge? Let’s explore together!

Your next adventure awaits!

COMMITMENT TO INCLUSIVITY

The 25 Weeks of Adventure series of events is supported by the Spark Fund initiative.

At BC Parks Foundation, we think that nature’s wonders should be accessible to all, regardless of background, ability, or circumstance. We recognize the immense power of the outdoors to inspire, heal, and unite, and we believe that everyone deserves a chance to experience its magic.

This is why we are offering funding to community‑serving groups that are breaking down barriers and creating a space where every person can embark on their own adventure and spend time outside.
