Accessing the backcountry one step at a time
The Federation of Mountain Clubs of British Columbia (FMCBC) is the only province-wide umbrella organization dedicated to protecting and maintaining public, non-motorized access to BC’s trails and backcountry. For over 50 years, we have represented the interests of outdoor clubs from every corner of the province and have provided a united voice on issues related to non-motorized backcountry recreation.
