Ancient Forest | Chun T'oh Whudujut Park

Описание: Just off Highway 16 between Prince George and McBride and nestled in the traditional territory of the Lheidli T’enneh, the park protects a portion of the only inland temperate rainforest in the world. Hiking the Ancient Forest trail will bring you past thousand year old western redcedars and a rich biodiversity of plants, mosses, lichens and fungi.

The 450 metre long universal access boardwalk provides the opportunity for people with all abilities to experience this majestic area. Another 2.3 km of boardwalk provides access to magnificent “Big” Tree, Tree Beard, Radies Tree and a beautiful cascading waterfall.

Being located within the Lheidli T’enneh traditional territory, the Ancient Forest and the land it grows on is closely tied to the First Nation’s cultural practices and traditions. Lheidli people would visit the stands from summer fishing camps along the upper Fraser River as well as gather medicinal plants, some of which were thought to be extinct. These activities were interrupted by the impact of residential schools. However, The Ancient Forest has not always been valued the same way it is today.

We are the Jajabars. Jajabar in Bengali means a nomad or a vagabond. We plug ourselves in Edmonton, Canada and once the batteries are recharged, we start again. We have travelled to many countries around the world and have encountered lots of interesting experiences. So, we have decided to share these experiences with you. Hope you like our videos.
