The book follows both the Southern (Victoria to Elk Pass) and Northern (Dawson Creek to Yukon border) routes. Colour maps combined with detailed route descriptions, numerous colour photographs, interesting facts and highlights of the trail form the base for this pocket-sized (8.25 inches high by 5.25 inches wide) book…. but with over 400 pages, you will need big pockets!
As the Trans Canada Trail/The Great Trail’s route through BC has evolved significantly since the book was produced, you may wish to confirm the routing using our Trails & Maps pages, or contact us if you wish to travel across the province using this book.

- Kettle Valley Express, by Vicom Designs (Small map book for the KVR, as well as Columbia & Western, published and updated annually. The small scale map isn’t highly detailed, but it includes touristic information, such as accomodations.. and soon a smartphone app!). www.kettlevalleyexpress.com
