It’s no secret that BC is home to some of the most incredible nature trails and scenery around, and hiking is a great way to take it all in. In addition to bettering your physical and emotional well-being, hiking helps to rebuild the human connection with nature.
So if you’re looking to reconnect while immersed in the wilderness, there are a handful of famous trails that just landed on Betway’s list of North America’s Most Popular Hiking Trails. Let’s dive right in!
The report analyzes Google search data from the past 12 months, separating the most-searched-for trails in Canada and the U.S.
In the U.S., the 2,190+ mile long Appalachian trail takes the cake, with the Skyline Trail in Banff National Park topping the list in Canada.
Alongside Banff, there are three trails in BC recognized for their natural splendour: Plain of Six Glaciers Trail and Iceline Trail at Yoho National Park, and Berg Lake Trail at Mount Robson Provincial Park.
