The West Coast Trail (Canada BC) is very challenging physically and mentally, it requires some serious planning and preparation, but will reward you with one of the best experiences you'll ever live!
There's 70 ladders, 130 bridges, lots of semi-functional boardwalks, plenty of mud, and a few cable crossings over rivers, it's like a giant obstacle course!
Originally called the Dominion Lifesaving Trail, the West Coast Trail (WCT) is a 75 km (47 mi) backpacking trail following the southwestern edge of Vancouver Island in British Columbia BC, Canada. It was built in 1907 to facilitate the rescue of shipwrecked survivors along the coast, part of the treacherous Graveyard of the Pacific. It is now part of the Pacific Rim National Park and is often rated by hiking guides as one of the world's top hiking trails
The entire West Coast Trail is on the traditional territory of the Huu-ay-aht, Ditidaht, and Pacheedaht First Nations.
We hiked the trail from South to North - Gordon River to Bamfield from August 30th to September 7th

Spectacular video. My wife and I did this trail 30 years ago and so it was nice to see such a professional well done video to remind me of this experience. One experience you brought back to my mind was with the mud shots. Yes there was a lot of lot of mud. I remember not choosing my step very well and sinking into a mud hole up to my knees. Not pleasant.

Thank you!! I’m amazed to know that you did it 30 years ago, how was the ladders condition? What was different? Type of equipment you had?

What a magnificent job you did of capturing the power and beauty of the trail. You got EVERYTHING and more. I last hiked it 3 weeks before I met you. I caught covid on the bus but the GDT cured that!

Thank you Jackie ❤️ The west coast trail was one of the most special hikes I've ever done, I wish it was longer...the temperature was on our side! I agree with you, nature is a definitely cure!

That was cool to try! At 3:30 you can notice something falling into the river, a water splash, it was my friend cellphone, we searched for it for about an hour into the forest…no success, we checked the video to find out it fell out from his pocket, despite everything it still works perfectly 😅

Hey we're strating the trail in three days. The crab there - is that something you all caught or provided at the ferry? Is it an extra cost?
@Ratatrail
@Ratatrail 2 года назад
Amazing, this trail is so beautiful, almost unreal!! The crab 🦀 was freshly caught by the people at the ferry, I don’t remember the exact price, it was expensive but so worthed, they only accept cash! Enjoy 😊

Hi! Thank you for making this video. It was really helpful. I have a question. Do you think it is possible to camp with hammock there? I have no idea how the campsites look like.
@Ratatrail
@Ratatrail 2 года назад
Thank you! Hard to say, we were camping on the beach almost all the time, the forest is just behind, you would be able to find enough threes except maybe for one campsite!

how were your Altras? Did you just have wet feet all the time and it was ok? Did they dry out every night? I'm debating weather to use mine or not. I'm leaving on June 23 South to North this year.
@Ratatrail
@Ratatrail 2 года назад
They were perfect for me but it all depend of the weather that you’ll have! I did the whole Pacific Crest Trail with altras in worst condition, I’m just a fan of the lightweight, they gets wet fast but also dries very fast! Good luck on your journey, it’s gonna be epic 🤠
