3About Gold River, BC
Gold River sits at the head of Muchalat Inlet on Vancouver Island's west coast, reached by Highway 28 running 91 km from Campbell River through Strathcona Park, over mountain passes and past Buttle Lake before dropping to the coast. Locals make the Campbell River run for supplies and appointments, while folks coming from Courtenay or Comox are usually settling in for a longer stay. Top off the tank or charge up before leaving Campbell River, as options are scarce once you're in town. Once you arrive, hop aboard the MV Uchuck III, a converted WWII minesweeper still delivering freight and passengers out into Nootka Sound.
