Stewart, BC at a Glance
Stewart, BC, is located 200 km (124
mi) north of Terrace, near the
Alaskan Border and the town of Hyder,
AK. Situated on the shores of the Portland
Canal, Stewart offers the rustic northern charm of a gold-rush town without
the hurried bustle other mining centres sometime experience. Nonetheless, this
friendly community of about 500 residents offers unparalleled scenery and is a
worthwhile destination for anyone who is willing to veer off the beaten path.
The town is accessible via Highway 37A, and once here, there are a number of accommodation
choices, as well as remarkable attractions to see. The Stewart
Historical Museum is one such attraction, providing a detailed glimpse into
the rich history of this town. These days, it's difficult to find untouched natural
surroundings, so nature-lovers will be in heaven exploring Stewart's wilderness,
particularly Bear
Glacier Provincial Park, where the massive and mighty Bear
Glacier lives on borrowed time as it slowly disappears.
