Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge

Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge sits in the UNESCO-designated Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Reserve and offers a tailor-made itinerary of extraordinary nature-based adventures. Guests have direct access to 600-acres of gloriously wild nature reserve where opportunities for adventure, education, natural enrichment and personal connection abound.

Discover the pristine seascape surrounding Clayoquot Sound and the Bedwell River. On-water exploration includes a Zodiac boat excursion and canyoning down a glacier-fed waterfall channel. Guests can test their skills in rock climbing or set their sights in a game of archery. Guided hiking opportunities are plentiful and a wonderful way to take in the landscape and there’s horseback riding too.

Signature experiences are offered on an intimate shared basis with fellow guests at scheduled times. An aerial adventure exploring the vast, remote wilderness by helicopter makes a stay at Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge truly unforgettable and private touring is also available (additional charges apply).

Twenty-five luxuriously appointed white canvas tents, in the style of turn-of-the-century prospectors, line the banks of the magnificent Clayoquot Sound and are dotted among the region’s pristine old growth temperate rainforest.

A Baillie Lodges-led reimagining of the tents’ interiors brings a fresh new contemporary look to the accommodations with signature clean lines, generous appointments and pared back, refined luxury.

End-of-the-bed views and specially commissioned furnishings from local designers evoke a personal connection with the Vancouver Island landscape.

Dining at Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge is both celebratory and considered, reflecting the natural surrounds of Vancouver Island’s wild west coast and using locally sourced, sustainable produce to offer a real taste of the destination.

The lodge offers dining with a contemporary style cuisine influenced from British Columbia’s multi-cultural community and the Pacific Northwest’s thriving culinary scene. Ingredients on the daily changing menus are mostly sustainably produced, foraged or respectfully harvested and are sourced from Vancouver Island and the greater province of British Columbia.

Located at the heart of Vancouver Island’s natural wild-west playground, Clayoquot Wilderness Lodge sits in the pristine UNESCO-designated Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Reserve.

Guests have direct access to 600-acres of gloriously wild nature reserve and opportunities abound for adventure, education, natural enrichment and personal connection.
