Billy Barkers legendary gold strike on Williams Creek triggered a multi-billion dollar industrial revolution that literally built a province. Today, the extraordinary historic town of Barkerville stands as a living testament to BCs golden beginnings. With its unique street scape of more than 125 heritage buildings, period displays, satellite museums, restaurants and shops there is still so much to explore.
We offer guided winter and summer tours of the Bowron Lake Chain and the Cariboo Goldfields. We operate from our home base at the Frog on the Bog Gifts and Coffee in Wells.
