Working Together
The BC Bird Trail engages birders at all experience levels, making it easier for locals and visitors to plan engaging trips throughout BC to discover the joys and benefits of birdwatching.
This project actively promotes a series of core values that include ecological, personal, and sustainable responsibility – historical and contemporary culture sharing – and never-ending discovery through learning, travelling, experiencing, and sharing.
Our team is always working with partners throughout the province to identify opportunities for brand alignment in support of our core program values. Please contact us to discuss how we may be able to work together to promote birding opportunities in your community.
