British Columbia boasts an amazing array of hot springs, many located in spectacularly scenic areas. Many are conveniently situated in some of BC's outstanding resorts or in idyllic national or provincial parks. Others can be found in remote areas that can be reached by strenuous hikes, along canoe routes or by float plane.

 



Hot Springs in BC:


Kootenay Rockies

A large number of the province's hot springs are found in the Kootenay Rockies. Most are situated in their natural surroundings: soak in muscle-relaxing comfort amidst deep canyons, old-growth forests, flowing rivers, craggy mountain peaks and mineral-rich caves. Thanks to a high mineral content in their waters, hot springs throughout this region are known for their therapeutic benefits.

Northern BC

The hot springs of Northern BC are as unspoiled and pristine as the vast, natural surroundings of this region. There are some unique waters to be found here, including the thermal springs of Liard River Hot Springs, set in a lush spruce forest. Natural, non-sulphur mineral waters can also be found in this region.

Vancouver Coast and Mountains

Visitors the world over have soaked in the healing waters of Harrison Hot Springs since the late 1800s. Even before that, they were long revered as a place of healing by the Salish First Nation. The springs are just a two-hour drive east from Vancouver via Highway 1. There are two springs located at Harrison Lake's south end: the Potash and the Sulphur.

Vancouver Island and Gulf Islands

On Vancouver Island, visit the hot springs at Maquinna Provincial Park, accessible by boat or float plane only. It's worth the trip: amidst magnificent natural scenery, the fresh spring water cascades down a hillside into rocky pools.
