Breathe in the Wild
Breathe in the Wild and fill your senses with the wonder of ancient forests, deep emerald lakes, and rivers that teem with life just below the surface. Walk amongst trees that have been reaching for the heavens for generations; and in the breeze you may hear the echoes of indigenous spirits from time immemorial. Silent snow-capped mountains stand in graceful guard over the valley and its inhabitants. Nature has an innate ability to heal and soothe, and is a place everyone is welcome. Nature is the beating heart of the Harrison River Valley; and we invite you to experience it for yourself.Â

All around you, you’ll find ways to relieve and lessen negative effects of stress. Close your eyes and imagine yourself hiking, the gentle pad of your boots on a mossy forest floor, listening to the sounds of bird song and the rhythm of your breathing. Picture yourself reaching the peak, panoramic viewpoint, and spending some time to just breathe in fresh mountain air, enjoy the views, and exist in the moment. Find peace and healing in the wilds of the Harrison River Valley.

Protect the Wild
Into the Wild: it’s where we retreat when we seek solace and healing; a place where our worries are few and our hearts are full. It’s a place where we seek adventure, and in doing so, we learn more about ourselves. In the Harrison River Valley, we are nestled within a bounty of nature’s most precious gifts: deep green forests, sparkling lakes and rivers, and mountain ranges that stretch as far as the eye can see. Every day, nature gives us the space and opportunity to hike, bike, camp, fish, swim, paddle, and run; a chance to live life to the fullest; to truly be ourselves and feel connected to nature. For everything that it provides us, let’s do our part to protect the wild!
Guardians of the Wild
Living in harmony with the wild has always been a sacred belief for Indigenous Peoples. As a source of sustenance, spirituality, and traditional teachings, the land is deeply intertwined in Indigenous culture. As such, a profound importance is placed on their roles as Guardians of the Wild. As caretakers and stewards of the land since time immemorial, they are the knowledge keepers and we have much to learn from them. As you step into the wild, to enjoy its sanctuary and beauty; realize that you are walking on sacred Indigenous land; take a moment to listen to the forest and thank those who came before us; those who are Guardians of the Wild.
