Antler Lake. A crystal clear lake great for a family picnic or a fresh water rod and reel experience while absorbing the scenery and the wildlife. Located off of East Road north of Gold River village near the river itself.
Captain Cook Monument. 1778 the Europeans discovered, what we now call Canada. A Brass plaque was erected in 1903 to remember the event. This monument is on the same ground of the historic old Spanish fort located on Nootka Island in Yuquot. Access by boat.
Crest Creek Crag. Worth a drive to see the mountain climbers try their skills along the steep rock walls manoeuvring around on over 100 different routes. A real treat and an eye opener. Located 9 km. east of the Gold River Village on Hwy #28 by the Crest Mountain trailhead.
Crest Mountain Trail. 5 km. trail with an elevation reaching over 1100 metres. Forested paths, wilderness all around, and a single log bridge takes you to a lookout celebrating some fantastic views. Located 9 km. from Gold River east on Hwy #28.
Big Bend Picnic Site. Picnic area nestled up to the shores of the Gold River. Enjoy your meal as you watch the kayakers and canoes stroll by. Next door are the beautiful fairways and greens of the local golf course. Located on Hwy #19 south of Gold River village.
Elk River Trail. A 11 km. 5 hour hike along the Elk River barring very little elevation change, only 600 metres. The trail takes you to Landslide Lake and over some rocks and through the lush rainforest. Access from Hwy #28 near Drum Lakes.
