Forming a 450-kilometer loop around the south end of Vancouver Island, the Alberni Bam Bam is a week-long bikepacking route that starts and ends in Nanaimo, British Columbia. It links gravel roads, rough doubletrack, and a four-hour boat ride up the Alberni Inlet, featuring numerous swim spots, old-growth forests, quirky communities, and so much more.
