Range Beyond Range Circle Route
The Range Beyond Range Circle Route connects the mountain towns of Pemberton, Lillooet, and the Bridge River Valley in a 284 km circuit that blends paved highways, gravel backroads, and wild beauty. It’s mostly out of cell service and entirely out of the ordinary. Travelling in either direction, the loop carries you from glacier-fed valleys to sun-drenched canyons and into BC’s deep interior; a region shaped by fire, water, gold, grit, and story.
Whether you climb the switchbacks of Duffey Lake Road or take the Hurley Forest Service Road straight into the heart of the mountains, you’ll need a good vehicle, good tires, and an even better sense of adventure. (Bring a spare. And don’t rely on Siri, she doesn’t do backroads.)
But those who seek the road less paved will be rewarded: with wine glasses and wildflowers, with gold pans and glaciers, with pit cooks and poetry, with floatplanes and fishing lines and the sudden hush of a forest that’s been here far longer than we have.
