Liard River Hot Springs Provincial Park contains one of Canada's largest natural hot springs systems. The springs create an unusually warm microclimate. Fourteen species of orchids are found here, as are carnivorous plants such as sundew, butterwort and aquatic bladderwort. As you follow the boardwalk trail from the parking lot to the springs, you'll have numerous opportunities for observing this unique flora and wildlife. In the hanging gardens, wildflowers flourish in the natural terraces created by the springs' mineral deposits.
Alpha pool is the busier of the pools as it is closer to the parking lot. Beta pool, located further down the trail, is larger and deeper. Relax and enjoy water temperatures ranging from 42°C (107°F) - 52°C (125°F).
Liard River Hot Springs Provincial Park is located along Highway 97 (the Alaska Highway), a four-hour drive northwest from Fort Nelson.
Mount Layton Hot Springs' natural, non-sulphur, mineral waters have been developed into a hot springs resort of therapeutic value.

The main pool has a water temperature of 30°C (86°F), while the hot tub reaches temperatures of 41°C (106°F).
Mount Layton Hot Springs is about a 20-minute drive south from Terrace, off Highway 37.
