British Columbia is located between the Pacific Ocean and the Rocky Mountains. The spectacular nature of British Columbia’s inland and coastal regions provide a rich arena for outdoor activities such as hiking, skiing, kayaking, and mountain biking. It has mild weather across the interior, rainy climates along the coast, and subarctic climates further north. The major cities are Victoria and Vancouver, which account for nearly 15% of the total population.
