| | Bella Coola Hwy 20, British Columbia, Canada |
 | | Bella Coola (population 2,500) marks the western terminus of Alexander Mackenzie's trek across Canada in 1793, the first crossing of the country by land. |
 | | Tweedsmuir Provincial Park, through which the Bella Coola Road passes, at over 2.2 million acres (895,000 ha) one of British Columbia's biggest parks, is most easily accessed from Highway 20, which bisects the southern half of the park east of Bella Coola. |
 | | The notorious stretch east of Bella Coola, known locally as the Hill, is 27 miles (43 km) of steep, narrow road with sharp hairpin turns and two major switchbacks as the highway descends from the Chilcotin Plateau. |
