After receiving much love from our readers (keep those comments coming!), we, the writers thought of living up to the purpose of this blog. We will try our best to come up with any random topic which can be related to any destination in Canada. Here’s what I have been able to come up with after hours of deliberation:
|
Heli-skiing – British Columbia
|
 To enjoy the best sceneries that North America has to offer, do it the extreme sport style – skiing. Heli-skiing, in particular, means that people will be taken by choppers to neighboring mountain ranges such as Selkirk and Monashee. For an unforgettable powder run, these mountain ranges are worth skiing on from Revelstoke City. Snowboarding and tree skiing are also popular among locals and tourists, and the best months to visit are from December until May.
|
Bicycling – Alberta
|
 Whether it’s only for a day or more, Alberta is one of the many cycling destinations that you can go to. Bike trails and roads that vary in size and terrain crisscross this wide and popular sports destination. Among the top trails include Icefields Parkway, which runs 300 kilometers long. Another one is Kananaskis Country, which is famous for its picturesque routes. The best time to visit here is before or after the peak season. For more information, you can check out the different bike trails in order to avoid the heavy traffic on certain occasions. |
Dog Sledding – Yukon and Quebec
|
 Yukon and Quebec are the perfect winter sports destinations. Dog sledding is the most popular, but there is still a need to monitor the changes in climate because it affects the yearly dog sledding season in participating provinces.
|
Whitewater Rafting – Chilko-Chilcotin-Fraser Rivers
|
 For the adrenaline junkie, head over to the Chilko-Chilcotin-Fraser Rivers and ride through the class III and class IV rapids. June through September is the best time to visit, where the temperature spinsaround 20 degrees Celsius.
|
Canoeing – Bowron Lake Park
|
 For a more peaceful or milder water sport adventure, try canoeing. This 116-kilometer stretch is comprised of several lakes and rivers in British Columbia. While here, it is also an excellent opportunity to visit the Quesnel Highlands and Cariboo Mountains.
|
These sports destinations are just some of the widely patronized in Canada. There are many other sports destinations which can fit your lifestyle and budget. So, what are you waiting for? Get your lazy bottoms off the chair and plan your sports destination holiday now!  |

This is an excellent view at the best of British Columbia I have been here in one of my frequent travel. It really fascinates me and I am planning to go back there, this time with my colleagues. Thanks to this links. It became easy for me to convince my colleagues to go for an outing here. I will never forget the marvelous experience I had when I was there and I will keep enjoying water rafting as many times as I can.
One of my best sports which thrilled me a lot is biking. Mountain Biking at Camp Fortune during the summer is my favorite extreme hobby. I love to do it every day to make me strong and healthy!

Dog sledding is really fun, it makes me wonder on how strong those dogs are, I mean with the weight I have they still can pull me
All I can say is … WOW! These places are great for me and my family. They look perfect for everything. Maybe I could go there even for sight-seeing?
It is really the perfect time to do sports or things that are fun in this season. But it will be more fun if my family is with me. If I am going to choose from those sports, I would really want to go to Chilko-Chilcotin-Fraser Rivers to experience their Whitewater Rafting. I’m sure going to that place would be so much fun!!
Whitewater Rafting catches my attention. How I wish I’ll be able to try it soon. It seems exciting and I’m sure I’ll enjoy this kind of sports. Presence of mind and alertness is needed for this . Team work is very important in order to go with the water flow without doing any harm to anyone of the team.
I love Heli-skiing so much! I can say that I’m best at it! My father trained me well on this sport and we love doing this together and whoever loses has to pay 100 dollars….
Haven’t tried any of those stuff but I definitely I will ‘coz it seems interesting. I guess the best and most exciting sport here is Dog Sledding, I’m going to bring my kids with me for them to experience this sport.
Oh! These sports are actually a winner because it’s something really unusual and unique way to enjoy a trip to another place. I’m very excited to try all these sports when I get the chance to have my vacation.
The photos really look so wonderful for each of those sports to be held on those places. I hope I can go to the Chilko-Chilcotin-Fraser Rivers for Whitewater Rafting with our whole family. There is no doubt it will be so much fun going there.
This mountain bike trail is part of a historic route that had been used, starting in the mid-1800′s, by the “Overlanders” – gold seekers heading to British Columbia to hopefully find their fortune. The trail has a mix of rolling singletrack, loose off-camber shale sections and a few technical rock-strewn climbs just for fun. Bring your camera for photo ops along the route. You’ll even see the ruins of the Moberly cabins along the way. Quite a nice setting for a mountain retreat but no cable or running water! Don’t forget that bears like to frequent this area especially in the spring. Pack the pepper spray and ride in bigger groups if you can.
I want to try dog sledding. It’s a nice way to enjoy the scenery especially when it is the only thing by which one can travel from one place to another. I think it’s very beneficial, which is why most of the people use the dogs for the purpose of dog sledding.
I’ve never tried whitewater rafting before because it is an extreme sport. And we all know it is quite scary to do. But I have to try this one. Out of all the extreme sports out there, this one is one of the scariest. I hope I will have the chance to do it this year.
I’ve never tried those sports before, but they all look so interesting. I’m not an athlete but I hope I can try those sports sometime, especially the Dog Sledding. The dogs look cute. LOL!! But for the destinations, I really admire them. Just by looking at those photos can make you say that they are very suitable for those sports.
My favorite sport here is the water rafting, because I’ve learned about nature and the environment, it also benefits our body as well. But after a trip in the wilderness and a rafting trip down a beautiful river, I can see the impact and the danger of pollution, development and other issues such as environmental issues.
Dog sledding! Man I remembered when I was I child my father always brought me to Quebec and go dog sledding together. Now that I am a father of two, I swore myself to do the same thing like what my father did for me. Your article brought back the memories. I miss my old man.. May he rest in peace.
