It is considered by some to straddle the southern edge of the Cariboo country of British Columbia, although others consider Ashcroft-Cache Creek, Lillooet, Savona, Kamloops and even Lytton and Spences Bridge to be in the Cariboo. Clinton, however, does sit immediately below the southern edge of the Cariboo Plateau. Clinton has a number of attractions including horse-back riding, big game viewing, hiking, fishing and other outdoor activities.

Every May, Clinton is home to the May Ball which features a rodeo and dance. This is one of British Columbia's oldest continual events having first been held in 1867. The Clinton Museum, built in 1892, has a number of historical artifacts on display that date back to the gold rush and founding of the area.

Clinton is also the host of the annual Clinton War, a Society for Creative Anachronism week long event. It is a renaissance/middle ages full costume festival and war. It attracts anywhere from 2000-4000 people, mostly Society members from most of western Canada. It is usually held in the first week of August.
