Chilliwack

Chilliwack sits in the Fraser Valley between the Cascade and Coast Mountains, with the Vedder River running through town—elevation sits around 15m but serious climbing starts immediately. The Canyon to Coast Marathon uses the valley floor and riverbanks, while the BC Road Race Championships 2026 takes advantage of the 140km rolling terrain through farmland and into the foothills; cyclists also tackle the Goodride Gravel 127km route that winds through backroad climbs around nearby logging country. Runners find mostly flat valley courses, but the Vedder Mountain Challenge multisport event signals the steep terrain—500m+ elevation—waiting in the surrounding peaks within 5-10km of town.
