Bralorne is a historic gold-mining community tucked into the Bridge River Valley of the Coast Mountains. Its story began with the 1897 discovery of the Lorne claim, though it wasn’t until the 1930s that the town truly flourished.
During the Great Depression, while most of the world faced economic collapse, Bralorne boomed. The Bralorne Mine and the nearby Pioneer Mine became the richest gold producers in Canada. At its peak, the town was a bustling mountain hub with high-end amenities, including a hospital, a library, and even tennis courts.
By the time the main mines closed in 1971, they had produced over 4 million ounces of gold. Today, Bralorne is a destination for outdoor enthusiasts and historians that still retains the rugged, adventurous spirit of the old Cariboo gold rush.
