By purchasing endangered rainforests, Wilderness International preserves unique habitats for future generations. Through conservation sponsorships, educational projects, and carbon offset programs, Wilderness International enables individuals to actively contribute to biodiversity preservation. Since its founding in 2008, the organization has protected approximately 15 million square meters of wilderness. With the ORTLIEB Forest—initially covering 10,000 m² of untouched Canadian wilderness and set to expand—ORTLIEB is making a powerful statement in support of preserving these irreplaceable natural areas.

In western Canada, a vast temperate rainforest extends along the Pacific coast, home to the ORTLIEB Forest. This rare ecosystem harbors an extraordinary diversity of species and ancient trees that have stood for millennia. Within this primeval forest thrive rare ghost flowers, as well as bears, wolves, and eagles. Towering among them are colossal old-growth trees, including maple trees, Alaskan cedars, Douglas firs, and giant living trees—some reaching up to 2,000 years old and 100 meters high.
