Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tourism Association will be travelling the region to get input and feedback on the need for a regional trails framework.
Participants at the nine sessions will get an update on accomplishments on trails in the region and provide input for the future of the project and what the tourism organization should prioritize.
“The incredible trails found across the land without limits are critical assets in our visitor economy, local communities and resident health. Trails support a wide variety of tourism activities – from horseback riding, to fishing access, to cycling and beyond,” said Amy Thacker, CEO of Cariboo Chilcotin Coast Tourism in a news release. “The sessions will make sure people have the information they need, allow them to share their ideas and input on key components, priorities, and the future of the project.”
