Courtenay River, Brook in Courtenay, Canada

The Courtenay River flows through the Vancouver Island region, formed by the convergence of the Puntledge and Tsolum Rivers in British Columbia.

The construction of the first bridge across the Courtenay River in the early days marked a celebration with dancing on wooden planks smoothed by local workers.

The Courtenay Riverway trail system incorporates interpretive signs that document the area's connection to the Comox Logging and Railway Company's operations.

The waterway supports environmental initiatives through Project Watershed, which coordinates volunteer activities for shoreline restoration and native species planting.

The river system maintains a specialized forage fish monitoring program during fall and winter, contributing to local marine ecosystem research.
