At Yohetta Lodge, we believe that the heart of true adventure lies in the unspoiled beauty of nature. Our passion for the outdoors is matched only by our commitment to preserving it. As avid lovers of wilderness, we understand the delicate balance that sustains our environment, and our practices are a reflection of this deep respect.
A land where people have tread lightly for time immemorial.
In harmony with nature and in keeping with Xeni Gwet’in tradition, you will be both humbled and inspired by massive mountain ranges, high alpine lakes and mighty carnivores; where a sense of freedom reigns and you meet each day with excitement and wonder.
HUNILT’ASH (Welcome). Yohetta Lodge is located between Chilko Lake and the Taseko Lakes in the Chilcotin Region of BC’s Central Interior. It is home to the Xeni Gwet’in community, part of the Tŝilhqot’in Nation (which loosely translates to ‘People of the Blue River).
With the great Tŝ'il?oŝ (pronounced “sigh-loss”) Mountain in Xeni title lands, the Xeni Gwet’in feel a strong, independent connection to their history and traditional ways, and today, continue the tradition of their ancestors in protecting the environment, land and waters of Nemiah. They have become stewards of Xeni’s Wilderness for BC, for future Xeni Gwet’in generations and for the climate change movement across the World.
