About
Fiordland Conservancy is a large marine park, encompassing Kynoch and Mussel Inlets, their estuaries and the surrounding mountainous landscape. Fiordlandâs scenery is very impressive. The area includes one of the finest examples of glacially gouged fiords on the British Columbia coast, where sheer granite cliffs rise more than 1,000 metres. From the water, view the soaring peaks of the Coast Mountains, dense coastal forests, imposing waterfalls and lush river estuaries. The deep fiords and steep valleys allow little shore space for travel or camping. The vegetation is lush and grows high, obscuring visibility. This area is home to both grizzly and black bears, so travelling on shore can be dangerous and is not recommended unless you are experienced in backcountry wilderness travel. The conservancy can be accessed by boat or floatplane only; there are several fair anchorages. Fiordland Conservancy is located within the Kitasoo/Xaiâxais First Nation territory and is co-managed under an agreement between the Kitasoo/Xaiâxais Nation and the Province of British Columbia. BC Parks and the Kitasoo/Xaiâxais are dedicated to the protection of natural environments for the inspiration, use, and enjoyment of all visitors. Together they are working hard to preserve this pristine wilderness.
