Fraser Valley ATV Adventure Tour from Vancouver — UTV Off‑Road Expedition
Take control of a UTV and traverse the Fraser Valley’s logging roads and farm-fringed trails on a full-day off-road adventure from Vancouver. Expect rugged terrain, helmeted safety briefings, and valley views with a local guide.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring your driver’s license
A valid driver’s license is required for anyone driving a UTV; drivers must also sign a waiver before departing.
Wear closed-toe, grippy footwear
Sturdy boots or hiking shoes protect feet during entry/exit and provide traction on muddy trails.
Pack layered clothing and eye protection
Goggles or sunglasses block dust; a windproof outer layer helps in exposed sections of the trail.
Expect a security deposit
Operators typically require a refundable deposit (credit card or cash) before the tour; confirm amount ahead of time.

Conservation Note

The Fraser Valley lies on the traditional territory of the Stó:lō peoples and later became an agricultural and logging corridor shaped by glacial and riverine processes.
