Gold River Tour

GOLD RIVER - 2 Night Tour

We have heard many good things about an out of the way place at the end of a delightfully twisty road. What better way to celebrate the end of Omicron and P-car hibernation than a weekend driving to places unknown.

 
We will be catching the Saturday May 28, 7:30am ferry from Horseshoe bay to Langdale then motoring up the Sunshine Coast to Powell River for the night at the Beach Gardens Resort.

The next morning Sunday May 29,  by taking the 8:00am ferry across the Salish Sea (1 1/2 hour Transit) we make Comox for lunch. After which a tour up Mount Washington and a visit to 40 Knots Winery before heading up to Campbell River for diner and a nights rest. The Campbell River Coast Discovery Inn has hosted many car clubs taking this very popular drivers tour.

The next morning Monday May 30, we gas up at the Chevron before a two hour thrill down Highway 28 to Gold River where lunch awaits, leaving by 2pm gives plenty of time taking the Island Highway to make the 5:30pm Nanaimo to Horseshoe bay sailing back home.


This is a Charity Fund Raiser so the minimum fee to Register is $30 per person. But to show our appreciation to the towns we visit, more is encouraged. The Net amount collected at registration will be donated to the food banks of Powell River and Gold River. Our goal is to raise a total of $1000.00
