Description

Nestled in the foothills of the Beaufort Range beneath the shadow of the Comox Glacier, the historic Village of Cumberland invites you to come experience our rich history and our bright future! A bustling coal mining town from 1888 to 1966, our friendly community of 2800 is home to amazing cultural activities and world class outdoor recreation. Our annual Lantern Festival, Heritage Fair, Empire Days Celebrations, Miners Memorial Day, a vibrant live music scene, art galleries and exhibitions, heritage tours and the new Showcase Theatre Festival make Cumberland a premier cultural destination. Mountain biking and hiking trails surround the Village and nearby Comox Lake welcomes swimmers, boaters and campers. Naturalists will love the diverse flora and fauna that fills the marshes and forests around the Village. Gardeners will enjoy the heritage trees and gardens and the annual Garden Tour. We offer hikers, sightseers and skiers a perfect base camp for Mount Washington Alpine Resort and Strathcona Provincial Park.
