Cathedral Grove | MacMillion Provincial Park B.C.

MacMillion Provincial Park is a 301-hectare provincial park in British Columbia, Canada. The park is home to a famous, 157-hectare stand of ancient Douglas fir, known as Cathedral Grove, which draws visitors from all over the world. The park provides the only highway-accessible protected old-growth Douglas-fir forest in British Columbia. In 2007 Cathedral Grove made the short list on CBC television's competition Seven Wonders of Canada.

Indigenous peoples are believed to have used the area for ceremonial purposes prior to the arrival of European settlers in the mid-19th century. Evidence of "culturally modified trees", western red cedar trees which have had their bark stripped off, have been found and dated as far back as AD 1137. This was on the way to Tofino from our campsite in Port Alberni. How amazing! The oldest forest I think i'll ever see. I'm glad to share this adventure, enjoy.
