TONQUIN VALLEY

The Tonquin Valley’s scenery is unrivalled. The trail takes you into one of Canada’s premiere alpine regions, a unique combination of barren peaks, ghostly ice and fertile lakes. The valley is popular for its stunning views of Amethyst Lake at the base of the Ramparts Mountain Range. It’s famous for its variety of wildlife, which includes grizzlies, black bears, and mountain caribou. It is also famous for mud and mosquitoes. Maccarib Pass is a definite highlight.
