In the remote interior of British Columbia, halfway between Williams Lake and the fishing village of Bella Coola, lies the small community of Kleena Kleene.

In the heart of Tsilhqot'in territory and criss-crossed by the Klinaklini and McClinchy Rivers, it is snuggled between Ts'ylo-s Park and Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, offering many beautiful photographic opportunities.

The Chilcotin (Tsilhqot'in) is an expansive region renowned for its varied topography, abundant wildlife and spectacular landscapes – from rolling fields to snow topped mountain peaks, and grasslands to rainforests.

Perkins Peak is the natural landmark of the area and you can make its 9,250 ft summit in a day and still be back to your cabin in time for dinner and a sunset.

Wildflowers along the trails are spectacular around the second week of July and from this peak not only can you see the vast flatness of the Chilcotin Plateau, but also spectacular views of the  Pantheon, Waddington, and Niut Mountain Ranges as well as the Monarch Icecap and  Klinaklini Icefield.

A relatively easy hike, the Klinaklini Falls are just 7 km off Hwy 20, but devote at least 2 hours to this outing. Bring clothing for any extreme in weather for while it may be very hot during the day, summer nights can bring a frost.
