 | Abbotsford is located within S’ólh Téméxw – the traditional territory of the Máthxwi, Semá:th, and Leq’a:mel First Nations. Tucked in the scenic Fraser Valley, with Sumas Peak, McKee Peak and Mount Baker serving as landmarks to the city, Abbotsford is BC’s largest city by geographical size and is 70% comprised of farmland. With a census population of over 176,000 people, it is the largest municipality in the province outside metropolitan Vancouver. Located just 60 minutes east of Vancouver and serviced by an international airport and border crossing, Abbotsford is easily accessible with all the amenities. In Abbotsford, we love the beautiful scenery that surrounds us. We find peace in the mountains, rivers, parks and farmland. But above all else, we love coming together to share our passions – to rejoice at the changing of seasons and bounty of the land, to find more reasons to do something special together or to gather to share a meal, cup of coffee or pint of beer in a welcoming place. We are proud of Abbotsford and believe our community is distinct from others around us. Visitors to Abbotsford experience a tangible and memorable ‘vibe’ that can only be found here – a vibe born of the intentional and strategic mingling of experiences. At Tourism Abbotsford, we aim to showcase the unique and authentic experiences of our community while simultaneously encouraging you to explore vibrant events, great eateries, a revitalized historic downtown, art & culture offerings, epic outdoor recreation, family-friendly trails and world-class agritourism experiences For more information about what to do in Abbotsford, please visit the Tourism Abbotsford website. |
