🌲We love being surrounded by the forests, mountains and wildlife of the Sea to Sky. That’s why you’ll find birdhouses around our site, giving our feathered neighbours a little place to nest.

At Britannia Mine Museum, history, people and nature exist side by side. 💚

Swipe all the way to the end to see our little feathered friend take flight. 🐥
