The Caren Range is a low and mostly tree-covered mountain range in the Pacific Ranges of the Coast Mountains in southwestern British Columbia, Canada. It lies along the eastern shore of the Sechelt Peninsula, southeast of Sakinaw Lake,[1] about 74 km northwest of Vancouver. It has an area of 169 km2 and contains Spipiyus Provincial Park.[2] The name of the range is a long-standing misinterpretation of Carew. It was named for Benjamin Hallowell Carew. The range is noted for its ancient trees.[3]: 38
