It’s little wonder why BC’s Fairmont Hot Springs Resort tempts families for year-round outdoor play. I mean, when your Rocky Mountain-framed backyard promises all-season soaks in the natural hot springs, plus plenty of activity for everyone to enjoy, what more could you ask for?
Right on the resort’s doorstep is over 50km of forested trails, peppered with hidden lookouts and pretty waterfalls, begging for exploration. Sightseeing the area near Fairmont Hot Springs Resort is worry-free with the help of BC Rockies Adventures, located in the lobby of the resort. Stop in to get the best hiking tips, join a guided tour or rent a mountain bike if you’re looking for an adrenaline pumping adventure. The talented and experienced guides at BC Rockies Adventures can recommend the best tours or trails for every age and ability level, so your vacation is enjoyable for everyone in the family.
Step outside the realm of the resort and experience BC’s national and provincial parks, complete with hanging glaciers, panoramic mountain summits and serene lakes. Within an hour drive you can reach landmark destinations, such as Whiteswan Lake Provincial Park and the natural Lussier Hot Springs or Mount Swansea, the local favourite featuring expansive valley views. Sometimes the drive and viewpoints along the way can be nearly as beautiful as the hike itself.
You don’t need to limit your Fairmont Hot Springs experience to the hiking and biking, as there are plenty of options for relaxation too. Luxuriate in a bit of spa, with wraps, scrubs or massage, sip on a warm cup of local Kicking Horse Coffee while overlooking the beautiful Purcell mountain range from your balcony or switch up the adventure and tee off at one of the resort’s three courses, Riverside, Mountainside or Creekside Par 3. Just don’t forget to top it off with a dip in Canada’s largest natural mineral hot springs, the best place to complete your perfect day.
At the end of it all wind down amongst the friendly ambience of the rustic mountain lodge or bring your home away from home and stay in the top rated RV Resort. Stay and play this summer at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort.
