Big Qualicum Fish Hatchery Tour

Salmon Spawning Spectacle

Ride into one of nature’s most breathtaking events—salmon spawning season—on this guided e-bike tour to Big Qualicum Falls.

Beginning at the Big Qualicum Hatchery, this 2-hour journey follows quiet country roads and forested paths along the Qualicum River watershed. By late summer, tens of thousands of chinook, pink, chum and coho salmon return to their birthplace, fighting their way upstream in a dramatic display of instinct and endurance. You'll witness the action from riverside viewing areas and wooden bridges surrounded by mossy rainforest and cascading waterfalls.

Your guide will share the ecological and cultural significance of the annual salmon run, explain the life cycle of these remarkable fish, and point out bald eagles, bears, and other wildlife that depend on this seasonal bounty.

Electric-assist bikes make the route accessible to all fitness levels.
