History Museums
The Secwepemc Museum and Heritage Park, situated on the South Thompson River in Kamloops, BC, offers a captivating experience of Indigenous culture. The museum is a testament to the collective efforts of the Secwepemc nation in preserving their history, language, and heritage. Visitors can explore permanent exhibits showcasing their history and temporary displays featuring traditional games.
Second day of Kamloopa pow-wow! Totally awesome, as usual. Well-run with organized parking, security, first aid, golf cart shuttles from parking to the arbor, concession food areas, and a variety of great vendors. The noon grand entry was huge, with the entire arbor filled by eye-dazzling dancers of all ages. Seeing the tiny tots take the grass to dance their hearts out gives one hope for the future. The drumming galvanizes anyone with a heartbeat :) A summer essential!

Very interesting exhibition in two galleries with a third one to come (was under construction). One can see the passion and effort going into this museum of Secwépemc history and culture. It's worth a visit for sure.
Kate — Google review
Very much enjoyed this museum. Two smallish galleries with a third opening very soon. I would definitely go back once that opens as it will be focussed specifically on the residential school. The existing galleries are more specially about pre-contact history. I think it is so important to become knowledgeable about all of this history. I recommend making this museum part of your stay in Kamloops.
Roy E — Google review
Very poor museum... Not worth a dollar... Two small rooms with few items. We were the only visitors and none of the ten people there offered any explanation. And cherry on top of the cake, they managed to drill some holes in the wall while we were there.... Too expensive for what it is... Not to be recommended
Ayrthon M — Google review
A really lovely museum about the culture and way of living of the Secwepemc. The display is great and with a lot of explanations. The 3rd room is all about the time where kids were brought to schools and taken from their families. Which is very sad to read but good explained as well. We really loved this museum!

Kamloops Heritage Railway

Temporarily Closed
Rail museum
Tours
Scenic Railroads
The Kamloops Heritage Railway is a popular attraction that features the Canadian National Railway #2141, known as the Spirit of Kamloops. This 108-year-old steam engine has a rich history, originally used for passenger transport and later for hauling logs in British Columbia. The railway offers guided tours of the Backshop and operates five historic train cars, with ongoing restoration efforts for a sixth car.
The city of Kamloops has played an intermediary role connecting Canadian Pacific and Canadian Natural thus connecting the East to the West. This Railways have played a huge role here in this city’s development and history. As someone from Calgary where Railway also played a great role and I love learning the rail history, this one an intriguing place to visit to know more. The staffs are genuinely some of the nicest people around and are so eager to teach about history of the trains. There are many actual trains and although some are retired, some still operate and you will see some rare snow plower trains here too which you can get inside of. There is also miniature trains and a city map inside the train like a museum. You can get inside some of these trains and learn how they communicated in the old days without radio and how they operated these mechanical machines. This is a must visit place for train and history lovers

We went there at the end of June, 2019. Checked in advance if they would be open at that time, and they said yes. In spite of this , everything was closed :( Anyway I liked Kamloops a lot. Nice people, kind of exciting atmosphere . I hope I will have the possibility to go back there, and then I will doublecheck the timing with the Heritage Railway;)

This is the home for the #2141 Spirit of Kamloops steam locomotive. This train has been lovingly restored and has her original bell, whistle and name plate as well as authentic coaches, caboose, open air cars amd a cafe lounge railcar. The KHR, since going static, has turned their workshop into a museum. This museum, at the end of Pioneer Park, features exhibits on the #2141, Kamloops railway history and the story of our volunteers on their journey to restore a 115 year old steam locomotive. The KHR offers tours that offer an intimate look into the history of the 2141, often missed Kamloops railway history and the history of those who worked the rails. I would highly recommend this tour for train buffs and families alike. Child and family friendly. They are always looking for volunteers to help keep the dream of alive. Steam back into history!

It was closed, i'm assuming it's because of the covid restrictions still, so I can't give it a 5 star rating as if yet.Too bad, but you can still see some of the site behind the fence on the public pathways.

One of the must see and do things when in Kamloops. The train inside out takes you to a time 100 years ago. Purely driven by volunteers this is a piece of history that everyone needs to get a taste of when in Kamloops.

Your ticket on the Kamloops Heritage Railway is like buying a ticket back in time! It was so interesting learning about this trains history and how it operates. The most interesting fact was that everyone but three folks on this train were volunteers! The folks helping guests on the train, entertaining, and informing them are all giving up their time for the love of preserving this history and sharing it.

Green heart of Kamloops! A beautiful Riverside Park that’s perfect for all ages! The water park is a great spot for kids to cool off in the summer, and there are plenty of benches and picnic tables in the shady areas for a relaxing break. Whether you’re a local or just visiting, it’s a lovely place for a walk. Don’t miss the Rose Garden and the peaceful Japanese Garden — they add a special touch to the park. A must-visit in warm weather!

🌿 River Side Park 🌿 River Side Park is a beautiful and peaceful place to spend time outdoors. The walking trails along the river are clean and well-maintained, perfect for a relaxing stroll or a morning jog. The greenery and open spaces make it ideal for family picnics, kids’ playtime, or just sitting by the water to enjoy the view. There are plenty of benches and shaded areas to relax, and the calm sound of the flowing river adds to the park’s charm. It’s also a great spot for photography, casual gatherings, and enjoying fresh air away from the busy city. Overall, River Side Park is a refreshing escape into nature — quiet, scenic, and enjoyable for all ages. 🌳✨

Riverside Park in Kamloops is an absolute gem! We visited in the summer and had an amazing time. The park was full of life, families, kids, and people enjoying the beautiful weather. It offers stunning views of the river and has a clean, well-maintained beach that’s perfect for relaxing. The atmosphere is vibrant and peaceful at the same time. A huge thanks to the city government and park management for keeping this place so clean, safe, and welcoming. If you’re around Kamloops, this is definitely a must-visit. Highly recommended!

Riverside Park in Kamloops is a beautiful riverside spot with walking trails, playgrounds, and a splash pad—perfect for families. The views of the Thompson Rivers are stunning, and summer concerts add a lively vibe. Parking can get busy, and shade is limited in some areas. Overall, a clean, relaxing park worth visiting — I’d rate it 4/5 stars.
Parth S — Google review
A beauty of a park for everyone. We visited the park early September. There are many large old trees to sit under for shade from the hot sun, its close by the river and has a long walking path alongside it. I was told there is live entertainment each evening during July and August.

Excellent amenities, busy with lots going on, this is a great gathering place. Great people watching, lots of entertainment, and a lot of shade on hot summer days. There was even a concert when I was there on a Thursday! There is a water park, limited parking, a swimming beach area that is sectioned off so it is a safe place to swim in the river, paved trails and much more.

Nestled in the heart of Kamloops, British Columbia, McArthur Island Park is a sprawling green oasis that beckons both locals and travelers to indulge in outdoor activities. Spanning over 51 hectares on McArthur Island along the North Thompson River, this park is a vibrant hub for sports enthusiasts and families alike. With its well-maintained baseball and soccer fields, as well as a skate park for thrill-seekers, there's no shortage of ways to stay active.
All parks should be 5 ⭐️ especially this one. Absolutely beautiful park on an island on the Thompson River. Great paved trail that completely circles the entire park. It’s about 3 km. There is lots of parking available and public washrooms also. Lots of green spaces. Lots of benches but no picnic tables. The park supports multiple sports ⚽️ ⚾️🏒🏏🛹🚴‍♂️🥏 also mini golf. Lots of wildlife 🦆🪿🦉🦇🐿️

Beautiful park for baseball and other activities. As we were there for a baseball tournament (considered an "event") so we were allowed to camp there at a cost of $16.50/night. Lovely facilities with a beautiful 3.2km path along the perimeter of the island. Washrooms and garbage kept up nicely.
Erin P — Google review
It's an island not a park. The design of the park is good. There are a few big sport fields around the road. If you are a visitor, you may drive a little half round of this island. There are many parking and washroom along the road. We go there in the late evening so we didn't see any wild life. If you have time, I think there are a good trail goes around the whole island. I see people using bikes to stroll around. It may take some time for a round stroll.

This park’s a full-on activity hub. You’ve got soccer fields, baseball diamonds, a skatepark, disc golf, and even a big indoor sports centre. I liked the 3.1 km paved loop — great for walking or rollerblading, and it passes through some peaceful riparian areas with birdwatching spots. It’s family-friendly and well-maintained, with lots of free parking. Downsides? No dogs allowed, which might be a dealbreaker for some, and it can feel a bit too busy during tournaments or summer weekends. Some areas could use more shade or seating. Still, it’s one of the most versatile parks in town.

So disappointing. Was in town for a wedding, decided to end the night at the casino. A couple groups of us went, the second group arrived at 120am. Approached the bar & was told last call was done at 130am. Started ordering for the group, got bounced to a different bartender bc one wanted to cash out, pass on the order and then was told sorry, cant serve you anymore its 130am. It was implied that they wanted to avoid more work for themselves. Tried a couple slot machines after and both smelled like spoiled food. Bizarre experience. Kamloops is cool though.

While playing poker, the dealer made a mistake and gave the turn to one of the guys he knew from before. That player took advantage of being the last to act and raised, even though he should have been the first to check or raise. We noticed the mistake, and the dealer admitted it was his fault, but no one did anything about it. The dealer was also shuffling the cards by hand, which is unusual since other casinos use machines for that. This is the worst casino I’ve ever been to.

Kenna Cartwright Nature Park is a vast, year-round park with picturesque trails suitable for hiking, cycling, and snowshoeing. It boasts over 40 kilometers of gentle paths and is the largest municipal park in the province. The park offers a variety of trails, from easy to challenging, including wheelchair-accessible options. One of its highlights is the Tower Trail, a family-friendly 3.4-kilometer hike with stunning city views from a viewing platform at the top.
Trail is well maintain! Our dog love it. We walked in black diamond trail and its doable if you walked alot before. Nice view in the top! Free parking, toilet pit in the area, there is a bike repair station near in the parking lot. There is a lot of trail in the area too.

There are quite a few trails here. Most are steep so be ready to go up. The view from the top was great and I felt a good sense of accomplishment when I made it up. We took the main viewpoint trail. It took about 1 hour to go up, hang out a bit at the top, then go down. I would not take my kids. They would have complained a lot. It is all up! There was parking, it was easy to find, there was a bathroom and garbage can at the base of the trail and this was a good trail to try if you are looking for a good little hike and aren’t from town - it was easy to find and it is well marked, you won’t get lost.

Some very challenging hiking trails. Make sure you bring loads of water and a wide brimmed hat, because shade can be scarce. Some parts of the trail were quiet, mostly you could hear the highways.
Cam M — Google review
Kenna Cartwright Nature Park is a gem for anyone into hiking, biking, or just soaking up views. The trail network is huge, with options for all skill levels, and the scenery — especially at sunset — is unreal. You get panoramic views of Kamloops, the rivers, and even Kamloops Lake from some spots. It’s dog-friendly too, which is a bonus. Downsides? Some trails are poorly marked, so it’s easy to get turned around if you’re new. Also, parts of the park are pretty exposed, so bring water and sun protection. Still, it’s one of the best places in Kamloops to get outside and feel like you’re miles away from the city.
Riya S — Google review
This is the place to hike if you want an all-encompassing view of Kamloops from above. The trail doubles as a service road to the cellular towers on top of the mountain. Thus it is wide, smooth, and impossible to veer off course. The trail is very short but the gradient is steep all the way up the mountain. It's a hike that promises great rewards for little time and effort. Highly recommended.

Lac Le Jeune is a serene and magical location, perfect for corporate retreats or a relaxing getaway with friends. The resort offers luxurious accommodations and delicious food, while the provincial park campground provides clean and quiet surroundings with ample space for picnics and outdoor activities. The lake itself is beautiful and calm, ideal for swimming, canoeing, or paddle boarding. However, visitors should be cautious of fast-moving boats creating large waves near swimmers and kayakers.

We rented a pontoon boat from Bruker Marina, and had so much fun with it. They delivered it to another lake for us which was great because it cut out a lot of work for us. It arrived on time and ran great for the week we had it. There was a concern with the quoted price to what we were charged, but Kerry honoured the lower price without any problem and we thank him for that. A great place to deal with and hope to be back next year to rent from them again.

The campground is very open and has nice sites.The lake views are beautiful but is not a swimming lake Fishing was not a go at all We got one nibble on a week worth of fishing. Someone else caught 2 other wise people have said that they normally catch up to 25 a day but that was 2 weeks ago.It is colder up there and some times very windy. Great for kids to ride bikes, but no playground. I think they should add that.They have the best out houses ever, very clean and no odour.Very clean campground.$18.00 dollars a night nice size camping sites and fire pits.The staff there is very nice.We would go back a go earlier in the season like July.

Big shout out for Doug and Susan for looking after my boat when I experienced mechanical issues with my camper van back in July. I have been coming up to Tunkwa for years, each time knowing that the facilities will always be clean and well supplied.

A beautiful provincial park with lots of spaces (266) many of them right on the lake. When we first drove in we thought, wow lots of people, but we kept driving and found lots of empty campsites away from the crowds. Lots of wildlife around especially yellow-bellied mamots and chipmonks.

This is the nicest campground I've ever been to. It's so well maintained and Doug is the perfect caretaker for such an amazing place. The wildlife is pristine and the fishing is absolutely amazing. Take note, this is not a party campground and it's enforced.

Monck Provincial Park

Mentioned on 
1 list 
Park
Nature & Parks
Campground
Nestled along the serene shores of Nicola Lake, Monck Provincial Park is a hidden gem just 30 minutes from Merritt. This stunning park is perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, offering an array of activities such as swimming, boating, fishing (with 26 species to catch!), waterskiing, windsurfing, and hiking. Its warm and dry climate makes it a favorite among families looking for a camping getaway.
Monck Provincial was really pretty. The drive from Merritt is gorgeous, we passed many pastures and cattle guards to get to the campground. We stayed there in August and it was quite warm but many sites had shade for a good portion of the afternoon and evening. The roads are mostly paved which is good for kids on bikes. There is a small playground for young children. The "outhouse" toilets are plumbed/flush. The sites were nice and level for our tent trailer. The park had desert-like terrain and was very dry but there were many places to hang hammocks and very little bugs. Mosquitoes were not an issue. The stars and moon at night were incredible. The new park water system was having challenges so we were notified prior to arriving and we brought our own potable water. We chose not to bring our dogs swimming as there were signs posted warning of a blue-green algae issue (toxic for dogs or humans if ingested). There are a number of sites right close to the water if you can get one. The camp staff were very friendly and actively seen around maintaining all the facilities.

A very well maintained campground. We went here for a night with kids. The campsite is very clean and spacious. The washrooms at the campground are equipped with flush toilets and are hygienic. Night sky view is amazing as the trees in campsite are spaced. The lake has a very nice beach and a great day out picnic spot with groundhogs roaming around in the park. All in all a great peaceful place to be at.

Walking in this beautiful park during off-season is so peaceful and calming. The park attendants have done an amazing job of keeping the place clean and natural. I also love the fact that I am a senior , and they have some outhouses open in each loop.
Mae W — Google review
The campground was so beautiful! The park rangers were super sweet and helpful which made our stay more enjoyable. There was a large group that was VERY loud during quiet hours and playing music late into the night. They were so loud that four different parties had complained about them. They also left food out which is a big no no when camping with the risk of bears. I applaud the park rangers for how well they handled the situation judiciously by removing the group from the campground.

Looking for an amazing Provincial Park camping spot? You have to go visit Monck! We arrived mid-day and the check-in staff was so friendly and kind. We went and set-up our site and we luckily got one with a view to the lake that had a little path down to a beach. Everything was clean and well-kept! The site was on the larger side which was great! The facilities were well maintained and clean. The park staff came by to ensure we were all set-up okay and came around later asking if we needed more firewood. We unfortunately had to cut our trip short as I came down with food poisoning but we want to come back for a full stay soon!
Mirella H — Google review
Super nice campground. All the toilets (including the outhouses) are flush toilets and kept very clean (just be aware there aren't showers). The site hosts are all lovely. Unfortunately our trip was very bad timing because it was in the middle of a heat wave (38°!), their water system was having issues so it wasn't clean water (okay for washing dishes but not okay for ingesting) and the lake had toxic algae blooms so swimming wasn't recommended. All of these things are obviously out of their control and not permanent problems. The only reason I took one star is because I wish the spots were more shaded.
Crystal D — Google review
One of our favorite places to camp (if not our top fave). Hosts are awesome and friendly, everything is always clean and well cared for, sites have space and trees between, noise curfew is well enforced to make it a great experience for families and those who enjoy a quieter setting. The algae bloom was cleared when we got there which was amazing!
Kelly E — Google review
The lake has algae in it that makes it unsafe to swim and fish when it is blooming. If you are planning on booking a site here and want somewhere to fish and swim, I would suggest booking elsewhere. We went while it was about 35°C weather and had to go to other lakes each day which took away from the camping experience. Other notes: - The tap water also unfortunately had manganese in it making it unsafe for consumption. - The campsites do not have many trees so the sites get a lot of sun. I would suggest bringing a tarp or multiple tarps and a lot of rope just to help make some shaded spaces on your site. - The park staff/rangers were very helpful and nice. - The lawn/beach/picnic area is beautiful and would be perfect for lawn games.

Love the concept of stay and play. Nancy loves playing on that course. We love the campground, stayed two days this year. Logan Lake is a beautiful place, thank you for great hospitality.
Tim M — Google review
This is the only golf course in Logan Lake. I thought the course was in great shape for a small town course. There are 9 holes that make up a proper full and challenging round. The greens are a little bumpy and slower than a big course. The course is hilly, so consider a power cart. The green fees and cart prices are a bargain. The kitchen has been improved since COVID. We had coffee and a full breakfast for about $12. It was good. 2 eggs, sausage, toast with grilled potatoes. The staff are friendly and the course isn't crowded. It was good fun.

We had a wonderful time celebrating my husband's 40th with a mini fun tournament at Meadow Creek. Janet is fabulous to work with, so helpful and provided so much guidance in the set up and structure to make for such a great day. The entire group ended up coming back to do the back nine since they enjoyed the course so much. Challenging enough for the experienced but welcoming enough to make the beginner feel comfortable.
Melissa G — Google review
Had to start late due to signing in and then my party was hassled by the club head for grouping up more than 4 people claiming that it makes us slower while other groups had more people than 4 but were left alone. The guy hassled us on more than three occasions within the first hour even bragging about how he called the cops on a group last week and by the time everyone’s mood was ruined and members of my group were arguing with staff they had called the police on us. Even the responding office was surprised that he got called for such a childish reason. Side note is that one of our members complained to him that her daughter is special needs and has never golfed to which he claimed she should be wearing a sign saying that she is special needs

A challenging 9 hole game to start the season. The course is hilly at the beginning with water at the end. Watch out for Meadow Creek .
Neih H — Google review
NICE COURSE, DISGUSTING CUSTOMER SERVICE. Course is very nice, but some members of the staff are so unbelievably rude. As I see on another review it seems like the same women. Within our party we had 3 T times, our second time we were loading our clubs into the carts 2 minutes past our T time while the T off area was not clear yet, and this woman comes out yelling and acting very rude and condescending. They booked their T times too close together and tried to make us feel like it was our fault. The staff makes visitors and amateur golfers feel very unwelcomed. It takes 10 minutes to pay and check in and then they get angry because you're falling behind, then they do not give you maps or score cards, you have to find them yourself, but she had no issue yelling and screaming about how we should know where to go because theres a map and we should have had one. I've golfed here many times and was excited to bring our family and while the course is beautiful and very enjoyable, the staff put a very big damper on the start of our game. I will say though, I believe it was the new training women, helped us as we were finishing and she was quite friendly, which was refreshing because we were bracing for the worst.

Very nice campground by the river. I didn't mind trains as some people mentioned in their reviews. Clean bathrooms, beautiful nature and we had a bonfire (probably the last one this year :D) And bonus: we saw northern lights!!!! Beautiful!

We loved it there, an Oasis in the beautiful desert. Well maintained lots, great knowledgeable staff. Would have received additional stars if it weren’t for the high pitched squelching from passing trains. River is beautiful to watch, incredibly peaceful!

We had a short 2 night stay recently at site #4 on the riverbank. Pros: -The Hosts keep the park immaculate. Even flower baskets hanging from the pit toilets! -The setting is beautiful and we enjoyed a nice breeze from the river on a +33 degree day. -Our site had power which was also much appreciated. Cons: -No wifi at the site. (I know, first world problem .... Quit whining right?) It was accessible a short walk away in the upper parking lot, so we could check in with family. -TRAINS. Ok we knew that they were going to be there prior to booking. There are trains on a regular basis both across the river AND behind us. No whistle blowing which was appreciated. After the first night we got used to them though. -Guys on the site next to us parked their trailer really weird, which kinda infringed on our 'personal space'. They also smoked weed in the evening so we couldn't sit outside as the stench was awful. That sucked. That all being said, we have booked another stay in a couple of weeks, so, really it wasn't that bad. Overall we enjoyed our stay. :)
Wendy S — Google review
We had a great first come first serve campsite right on the river with power and water. Fly fishermen were having great days on riverbank and we enjoyed watching. One fisherman kindly offered us a salmon. Fish were plentiful - mostly pink and sockeye salmon. Outhouse are clean. No showers. Dumping station available. As others have said the trains are frequent and noisy. I live by trains so am used to it but these are different - think screeching metal. We often covered our and our dog's ears -- and we are not babies about these things. Overall the great spot outweighed the downside of trains.
Mike A — Google review
Juniper Beach is nestled between the C.P. and C.N. rail lines and beside the Thompson River. Most sites have power and water. There is also a sani dump on site. It can get hot here, but there's a nice low flow area of the river for swimming.
Mandy P — Google review
Beautiful spot for a day outing/picnic. The park is well maintained and the staff are friendly but if its a quiet night you're wanting you better be use to the sound of trains running past on both side of the campground all night long roughly one train every 60 minutes from 10pm until 4am the night we were there. Didn't sleep much as a result. There is no sound barrier/buffer between the tracks and the tenting area. Possibly not as bad where the RVs camp but we were told we had to camp in the tenting section since we had a tent and not an RV. Basically we paid $25 so as to not get any sleep. Will be returning for a picnic/day outing but will not be staying over night again.
S S — Google review
Stayed here for 2 nights and absolutely loved it! Beautiful spot right on the river. Had a great time sitting down at the river watching all the salmon make their way up the river to spawn. The trains are frequent and loud but didn't bother us at all. There is no cell phone reception , we had to walk up to the parking lot which wasn't far and not a big deal at all. Huge shout out to Betsy the park operator! She was so kind, and very funny! We will definitely be back!

Desert Hills Ranch Farm Market

We were very impressed with Dessert Hills Ranch. We drive from Chilliwack not knowing really what to expect. It was very much beyond our expectations. They have wagons as you enter to put your plants and produce in. They have a petting zoo and horse you can feed grain to in the barn. There produce prices are amazing. Very clean and very friendly. We definitely will go back.
Maria M — Google review
a great stop on a road trip! the petting zoo is extensive and they have interesting structures for the goats to climb. tonnes of fresh and affordable produce- but most of it is not local (they list the area of origin, though). they also have a bunch of ice cream flavours, though their cone prices are astronomical!
Bella M — Google review
Decided to visit specifically because they advertised their Pumpkin patch on FB in a theme I adore. Was not disobedience. Could make an afternoon of it and enjoy all their site has to offer (playground, bouncy house, animal petting and feeding area), but as I was only traveling through this time, we picked out our produce and left. Fabulous selection at amazing prices. So much effort in their displays. Will return in the future.
Amber B — Google review
It was an amazing first-time experience visiting Dessert Hills Ranch! The abundance of pumpkins and the delightful Harry Potter theme made the visit truly memorable. Both my little niece and my teenage son enjoyed every moment. The market offered a wonderful selection of fresh vegetables and beautiful indoor plants. The cashiers were exceptionally helpful and friendly, adding to the overall pleasant experience. The tour was wonderful ! I highly recommend visiting!

Our family recommended that we stop here to get good fruit and veg! Wasn't expecting the family friendly farm set-up. Everything from shady dog kennel for pets, a kids funzone, to a goat skywalk over the barn full of sheep, chickens, rabbits, and apparently clydesdales, though they were not in the barn this day. If you have $2,50 cash you can get a feed bag for the animals. I got a large Aloe Vera and nice succulent bowl in the garden section. Inside was amazing produce, more flavourful and cheaper than my local store, and a huge ice cream selection near the checkout. It was worth the time to stop here.

Jaw dropping cheap and amazing fruit and veggies. My friend Trish Watt begged us to come here and boy oh boy am I glad we did. Much of the produce is 70% or more cheaper than the grocery store and 10x better taste. $130 for a trunk load of fruit and veggies and much of it is exotic too. Bags of grapes for $1 each and boxes of mangoes for $5 each. WOW!!! It is so wild that you just have to come to experience it. The pictures don't do it justice. You could only see about 30% of the food I bought in the picture.

I highly recommend this museum to anyone who loves history or enjoys visiting local museums. It’s truly a hidden gem in British Columbia!

My partner, a friend and I walked by the museum on a weekend when it was unfortunately closed, and knew we had to return on a weekday. I’m so happy we did. This museum is unique in that it felt that the displays and historians had stories- not just about the ongoing of the town but of the human aspect. Everything was fun to look at and I really enjoyed speaking to the friendly people who run the museum who talked about people in history as if they were old friends. Really loved the experience and would highly recommend stopping here if you love history and those passionate about it. What can I say- I <3 the Ashcroft Museum.

Historic Hat Creek Ranch

Mentioned on 
3 lists 
Historical landmark
Sights & Landmarks
Historic Hat Creek Ranch is a living museum situated on the original Cariboo Wagon Roads, with buildings dating back to 1860. It's located on Highway 99 by the Highway 97 intersection, about an hour west of Kamloops. Visitors can enjoy American breakfast and lunch at the rustic restaurant and participate in educational programs. The site offers a historical walk and interpretive tour, allowing guests to learn about the area's history.
We feel so fortunate to have discovered this wonderful place on our way to 100 Mile House. It is truly a great spot, with friendly and very polite staff, and everything was impeccably clean and beautifully maintained. We especially loved the historic charm of the ranch. There a lot of animals that kids will fall in love. Surprisingly, it seems that not many people know about this gem, but it definitely deserves to be visited. We rented a cabin for the night and enjoyed a fantastic breakfast at the restaurant the next morning. A big thank you to Annet for her warm and gracious hosting, and to the chef for preparing such generous and delicious meals. The combination of price and size is a pleasant surprise. We highly recommend this lovely place to anyone passing through!

We stopped here on our way home from a 6 day road trip through BC and some of Alberta yesterday. It was hot 40 degrees but the site is incredible. It's clean. The blacksmith was wonderful--explaining what he was working on and explaining the process. The restaurant was amazing which was an air conditioned space with a spacious patio overlooking the property. The waiter who served us was polite and attentive. I wish i had gotten his name, but i think he was fairly new--but just had a great vibe. The girl who sold us our tickets, was super polite and explained the map and where to go and what to see. The restaurant is open 7-7 and you don't need to buy tickets to the site to stop and eat. I want to highlight something i thought was important--their animals are well taken care of and their well being is put beyond all else. Normally this place offers carriage rides, and i thought i had arrived early enough i might be able to get one, but as we approached the stage coach office, the handler apologized and explained there would be no more today--it was too hot for the horses. I wasn't even disappointed but happy to see their wellbeing is put ahead of making a buck. All animals had ample water and shaded areas--just not roasting in field in the 40+ degree heat. Well done Hat Creek Ranch we will definitely stop for some eats next time we are driving through.
Shannon C — Google review
I absolutely loved my stay at this place. I have raved about it to my friends and family! The cabins were beautiful as well as the shacks! If you camp in a tent the miner shack should be basically the same if not a step up! I genuinely would recommend this to families, couples, even singles if you are looking for a weekend getaway! The restaurant is fair priced, and the neighbours were extremely friendly! It didn’t get loud at night time, and there was tons of wild life and live stock to see around the area! 1000/10 would recommend the miners shack if you aren’t looking for a glam get away, but just a basic camping experience with a bit of a twist this is definitely the place for you and your family! It was also EXTREMELY fair priced! There isn’t much to do around the area but the actual stay on the ranch itself was wonderful and exceeded my expectations! *we brought all the stuff you see in on the inside photos of the shack! (Battery operated lights, air mattress etc..)

Historic Hat Creek Ranch is a quirky, worthwhile stop if you're road-tripping through the Cariboo. The site blends Indigenous history with Gold Rush-era settler stories, and the guided tours do a decent job of showing both sides. The original roadhouse is well-preserved, and the wagon rides add a fun touch for families. The Indigenous Interpretation Site is thoughtful, though it deserves more space and attention. Downsides? It can feel a bit commercial—some areas lean more toward touristy than educational. Food options are limited, and the gift shop is hit-or-miss. Still, it’s a unique place to stretch your legs, learn something, and connect with BC’s layered past.

Our group decided to stop in on our way northbound, we saw the signs and stopped for breakfast, we had a fairly large group, three families travelling together. Once we were greeted and sat our server politely notified us that due to the large group and having one server and cook on shift the wait might be an extra few minutes, which is no big deal we’re quite used to that now with our group. But I will say, the food was excellent, it didn’t take extra time at all, (so it seems) and the presentation was beautiful for every dish, even better so, it was delicious and the portion sizes were amazing for the price. We highly recommend stopping in to the restaurant to eat and experience the friendly staff, our server Anett was more than accommodating, very friendly and on the ball!! Excellent in talking and handling the childeren we had with us Good service Anett! We didn't get a chance to catch the name of the chef that cooked for us, only that he was part of the local indigenous band, and happy to cook for us. To you sir, thank you for a lovely meal! We’ll be talking about this place on the rest of our trip home, thanks to the hat creek ranch staff

Heaven !!! My favorite camping spot ! The Provincial Park has 2 dozen sites and there's always spots available . Not too many people know about this place . It's Unbelievable and the beauty and peace is something I truly value . We camped right beside the lake . At night you can see all the stars and it feels amazing . The sun wakes you up in the morning to a fun day at the beach / day use area which is a short 5 minute walk north . The water is clear and easy to swim in . The breeze picks up mid day and there's a nice wind from the west in the evening . There are picnic tables and seats and even a huge roofed gazebo in this day use area. There's a dock and nice long grassy area for playing tag with the kids . Sunsets are incredible . It's quiet and you can have the whole beach to your self . An amazing experience . I love this place !!

Stayed here for a night over the May long weekend. Recently re-done, this campground has Kelly Lake on one side, fields on the other and mountains everywhere else. Didn't get a chance to check out the beach due to flooding (there was no beach) but it would be a good lake for paddling or swimming. There is a day use picnic area just down the road from the campsite that has a dock and covered picnic area with wood burning stove. Dogs are allowed on leash but not on the beach. Most of the sites are fairly private...some more than others. Rate is $18/night which you can leave in an envelope at the entrance or have someone collect it. Water is available but you must boil it before drinking.

Not a lot of sites and not the most private, but never totally filled up during the 2 nights we stayed(June 16, 17) Running water and some of the cleaner pit toilets I've seen. I wouldn't call it a destination camping spot, but camping on your way to somewhere, or like us, if you hiking in the area, it's great.

This park used to be a busy location and we were never able to camp her as it would be full by the time we pass it. But this August long weekend (2022) we got lucky and was able to camp here and it was basically empty, maybe due to the heat wave. We swam in the river to cool off and watched the trains go by. I love trains so that does not bother me. Sadly it has been closed on Aug 17, due to Infrastructure on slope stability. Hope it opens one day.

CAMPGROUND IS CLOSED due to flooding from the area above the park. Not land owned by “Government of BC or Canada”. So no, not due to Gov’t incompetence as quoted by another reviewer, remediation would have to come from the land owned by the band. Edit: Someone just posted pictures Nov 2023 of them camping, this is NOT available at this time.

Perfect spot for a great view of the Thompson River along Highway 1. The camp sites were closed but we were able to park and walk down to the river. Definitely recommend to anyone driving past to make the stop. You won’t be disappointed

Such beautiful scenery, I always stop here with the kids when we drive through. a great little place to have a picnic

Beautiful view, but do not stay here overnight unless you have no choice or a very soundproof camping setup. Can’t believe there are so many reviews saying it’s a nice place to stay the night - they must not be tent campers. I was aware that there are trains on both sides of the river and didn’t mind as I live near train tracks myself, but they were extremely loud and the frequency was nothing short of absurd. Between 7:30-10pm when we were having a campfire, the trains came every 10min and were very long, often rolling by for 5min+ at a time. No exaggeration, the moments of peace were only a couple of minutes long. We brought earplugs and they did nothing to help the noise, so we were woken up throughout the night. It quickly became nightmarish and we hardly got any rest. Such a shame because it’s a gorgeous location otherwise.

Beautiful spot to camp. Only thing to note is that Goldpan currently (June 29th) doesn’t offer potable water due to elevated lead levels. Bring enough water for drinking, cooking, etc., before arriving.

We stayed for 2 nights May long weekend. The campsite is beautiful and has a lot of spots. Surprisingly, even during the long weekend, there were still spots left. We got lucky and had one of the spots close to the cliff overlooking the river. They have flushing toilets and the campground was very clean overall. People running the camp were very nice and friendly, 23$/night, cash only, bundle of firewood was 12$. The only downside was the wind. It was constantly windy for our entire stay, with a few strong gusts. Apparently, this is normal in the area during the spring. I didn't mind the trains, actually, I felt like it added to the atmosphere. Traffic from the highway wasn't bad at all in my opinion. Would definitely go back at some point.

Off the highway up a hill so very peaceful. Not highway or train noise. The Ponderosa Pine trees smell like vanilla or butterscotch. Their bark that is!

The view from the parking lot on the Trans-Canada is absolutely stunning. Especially if there is a train going by along the opposite side of the river. Beautiful view of the mountains, river and canyon.

Huge level sites, paved road, lots of sites, Sani dump, potable water, great spacing, very quiet and private, cement steps to WASHROOMS, picnic area across Highway for large gatherings, camp operator has added personal touches.. Solar lights on some paths and potted plants dotted around. Great site for any size trailer, tent or any. Well laid out and labeled hiking trails which I'm sure would be great for pedal bikes by the looks of it.

Gorgeous park, warm weather, great placement for an overnight rest. Park host was a bit curt, but she keeps the park amazingly clean and beautifully decorated with flowers and lights. There are flush toilets and cold water sinks with soap, but no way to dry your hands so bring a towel! Cold water rinse-off showers are provided, and water taps and refuse bins are well distributed throughout the area. Camp sites are spaced out well and nicely sized. Only insect pest we had a problem with were wasps; there are huge swarms of them and they can get aggressive. At night, the stars blanketed the sky in a wonderous display you will never see near a city. Across the highway from the campground is the picnic area and Thompson Canyon overlook... GORGEOUS. We will definitely return!

Resort for rafting, rock climbing & mountain biking, plus basic lodging in teepees & cabins.
Awesome stay at Kumsheen and so much fun doing the Devil’s Gorge half day paddle trip! The property is a great set up for couples (us), families, or groups of friends. Lots of different activities, beautiful views, and good amenities on site. We stayed in one of the canvas cabins, and it was comfortable and clean, bed was good too! The train being adjacent didn’t bug as at all, if anything it was actually a fun touch. Rafting with Ally was unreal! We had a great time, she was so knowledgeable and personable. Would recommend staying here and rafting to anyone. What an awesome time.

Went on the devil's gorge half day rafting experience with jasmine this week. Had a super awesome time out on the river. The team did a great job of pitching the trip right so my daughter felt comfortable even though she was nervous. The guys had some great stories to tell during the experience and we saw a host of wildlife to boot. Also, full credit for providing a delicious vegetarian option for lunch! Altogether this was a great experience and I would recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys

Hit the river with Trey over the weekend. Power rafting was so much fun. Trey was knowledgeable about the area, and made the whole day fun for our baseball team! We stayed at Shaw Springs campground, so we could be a little louder and not disrupt the resort guests. Appreciate the flush toilet at the campground. Thanks to Trey for a great experience! Will definitely be back!

Stayed in RV camp site, basic flat gravel pad with 30amp service. Views of canyon are spectacular from the camp area. Rafting was fantastic, well above my expectations. Our guide Elliott was very knowledgeable and his skill set made you feel confident you were safe in his hands going down the rapids. Also learning about the history of the river was great in the calmer sections. The midway lunch was also delicious. Overall had great time as a family and would recommend to anybody looking for an outdoor adventure from a safety minded operation.
Scott M — Google review
We had an incredible experience with Elliot as our rafting guide! He was encouraging, informative, and made us feel super safe while letting us have a ton of fun. We did a full day raft in a group of 10, with one other person joining us in our raft, and we all had a blast together. The food at lunch was delicious, the hot tub after the raft was relaxing, and each member of the staff was welcoming and added to the fun of the day. We just did a day trip out from Vancouver, but I’m excited to come back and would love to stay overnight at the resort. 10/10!

My family and I planned a day of rafting and it was so much fun! We felt well supported, were coached appropriately about safety and allowed to experience a lot of adventure. The guides were very personable (we got to enjoy Jas and Mary) and had lots of stories and local history to share. Lunch was delicious. We did not stay at the resort. The scenery is spectacular and we had many sightings of bighorn sheep on the slopes of the canyon.

A very quaint river rafting company. The tour guides are super friendly and knowledgeable! The tour starts off with orientation and then a 30 minute drive up to the start of the Thompson River. From there we get into the raft and float down a little ways to a beach area where we stop for lunch. There are lots of delicious appy's along with a "make your own sandwich". After that, the fun began as we paddled down the Thompson hitting a lot of rapids with some very cool names. My favourite one was near the end; it was called "18's" (because it was the 18th rapid on the river). The one thing that I wish we could have done is continuous paddling throughout the trip. Although floating down the river was fun, I would have liked a little more exercise. Overall it was a very fun experience! :)

Staff were awesome to talk to and through their hospitality, created a warm and inviting atmosphere for me and my family. Lunch was tasty and as the manager Big wave Dave said to us "some of the finest restaurants have no set address". The canyon was madness but our guide managed to get us through with utmost precision while maintaining a calm even stoic composure. All said and done I would highly recommend HYAK raft adventures to my friends. hope to do it all again next year🤙

Breathtaking views up from the river. Saw mountain sheep and bald eagles. Also learned a little fascinating history about the railway bridges and tunnels. Fun splashing from the white water parts of the river. There are also relaxing times too. Loved the picnic on the little river beach. Awesome experience for your Team! The guides were energized and obviously loved their dream jobs.

Golf Courses
Sheep Pasture Golf Course is a unique and memorable course located in a valley on the border of two bioregions, offering stunning mountain views. The presence of resident dog Ace adds to the magical experience as he helps golfers find their lost balls. Playing amidst sheep provides an enjoyable challenge, and the reasonable pricing makes it a great addition to any golf tour. While there may be some challenges like unplayable greens, overall, this course offers a solid and fun experience for golf enthusiasts.
This place was a treat! One unplayable green on #4, but the rest of the course was solid. Sheep let you get close, but not too close. The lady checking us in was great. I walked 9 for 25 CAD with a Pepsi. I would recommend dropping in if you're in the area. Thanks Sheep Pasture Golf!

Most memorable course of my life. The sheep are very cool, but the mountain views are incredible. It’s in a valley on the border of two bioregions: dry Chilcotin mountain to the north; lush, cascadia mountain with waterfalls and rainforests to the south. Each hole is unique, and you can’t get a better price anywhere. Very fun to play. Bug spray needed only on holes 3 and 4 in the evening.

My husband Nelson and I and our best friends Suzie and Derrick played this course in 1966. I have just found these wonderful photos which include the resident dog Ace. This dog was amazing. He found but never picked up any ball that went astray. He watched as you tee-ed off, and if the ball disappeared he would search til he found it. He would just sit there and show you where it was . Thank you Ace for giving us such a magical experience. We still talk about you to this day. June and Nelson Quiroga

REO Rafting, Glamping & Yoga Resort is a perfect destination for families with older kids seeking an adventurous bonding experience. The resort offers classic amenities like spa days, poolside drinks, and a private beach, but the main attraction is the thrilling white water rafting experience. The adrenaline-pumping activity encourages teamwork and unity among family members. Even nervous guests have praised the staff's patience in making them feel at ease before embarking on the rafting adventure.
I went with my friends for a mini-weekend get away. We were all tired and worn and just needed some natural relaxation. REO was the perfect fit for us. From the phone booking to our last meal, we felt the attentiveness and warmth of the staff and the care of each detail in our vacation. REO has experienced many setbacks from surviving the pandemic to an atmospheric river flood to a wild fire. Despite all this, the resort provided a full array of activities including white water rafting, kayaking/paddle boarding, yoga classes, massage, hammock garden, hot tubs, fire pits for nighttime gatherings and of course, amazing riverside patios. Inside the spacious tents, the bedding was comfortable and warm, and I fell asleep to the sound of the raging river every night. There are single room toilets and showers that were clean and readily available. Every meal was delicious - clean, healthy and satisfying food. But I have to say, my favourite experience was Brian, the owner. He would come around at lunch or dinner time to casually say hi and answered our questions. We were able to let him know our needs and likes and he would so discreetly offer us the best solutions. We felt very well taken care of. This is my second time to REO, I will be returning again with family and friends. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to all Canadians and International visitors looking for either adventure or a place to relax.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ My husband and I celebrated our 10-year anniversary just a couple of hours from home at the most charming little gem tucked in the mountains—REO Resort. Our package included everything, but due to feeling unwell, we kept things simple and soaked in the beauty of the resort and the nearby lakes. And truly, that was more than enough. We were blown away by the kindness and attentiveness of the staff. The resort was immaculately clean, peaceful, and thoughtfully designed. Even though the main bathrooms were out of order during our stay (and making the trek every hour while 34 weeks pregnant felt like a hike in itself!), we still had a wonderful experience. The food deserves its own review—every meal was intentional, fresh, healthy, and absolutely delicious. Five-star dining that we’re still dreaming about! It was exactly what we needed. Quiet, restorative, and deeply special. Highly recommend!

Amazing experience here at REO! The amazing: the staff are so friendly and helpful. Bryan and Karen really care about this property and business and it shows in the way they treat each of us like a valued guest. The tents were beautiful and clean, right by the river. The food is homemade, and delicious. It is served by the staff along with some help-yourselves on the side. The good to know, in case you are planning to go: the river noise level is a bit high even for a sound sleeper like me, I would actually recommend wearing light earplugs to block out the loud white noise! The last 8km are all varying levels of gravel, so drive a car that can handle the bumps and pebbles. Overall, I had an amazing experience and would highly recommend it to anyone who is considering!

I met up with 4 long-time friends for a 5 days getaway and we had never been to REO before. It far exceeded my expectations! The yurts were large, comfortable and had excellent deck furniture for hanging out by the river. The food was delicious, fresh, and varied in flavours (and plentiful!). The staff were friendly and helpful, and the owner Bryan checked in with us every day, and accepted our teasing with ease. They have done an incredible job rebuilding after the devastating forest fire 2 years ago - from the yurts and yoga buildings, to the hammocks and hot tub, dining area and indoor and outdoor showers, it's a treat to visit. We did rafting and yoga, but added on archery when we got there - it was a surprise how much they had to offer! This is a family-run business with a long and dedicated history to this area and it's connection to nature.

Located in the impressive Fraser Canyon, Hell's Gate Airtram offers a breathtaking view of the narrow pass where the powerful Fraser River rushes through. The airtram provides an opportunity to witness the towering rocky walls and raging torrents from a unique perspective. Visitors can also explore various viewpoints, a suspension bridge for picturesque moments, and even enjoy some ice cream at the shop.
Stopped here on a whim(like many others) and it was totally worth it! Getting to be down in the canyon was awesome. Good little gift shop, fun suspension bridge at the bottom and interesting history. The ride on the tram was unique and definitely worth it!
Evan G — Google review
Been here before and decided to bring our road trip to pass by here. Although online suggested buying tickets online, this place was not busy at all with zero line ups and ample parking. The airtram experience was great offering great views to and from its lower facility. This place features multiple exhibits, gift shop, gold panning station, cafe (reviewed separately), bridge, and fudge store that offers a decent experience to the average tourist. Compared to my previous experience, this place feels a little dead. Perhaps it's not the summer season yet, but I feel like the shops they had originally have turned to exhibits for the sake of cutting manpower costs. The gold panning station was kind of lacklustre without anyone teaching about the mechanics like before. Overall it's a solid 3 and very hard for me to place a 4 like before.
Charlie C — Google review
Spectacular views and a unique experience, but a few things to know before you go. Hell’s Gate is definitely worth a visit if you’re driving through the Fraser Canyon. The gondola ride across the canyon is short but breathtaking, and the views of the rushing Fraser River are stunning. The suspension bridge and historical displays add a nice touch, and the whole place feels like a piece of BC history. However, parking is very limited, so try to arrive early. The on-site restaurant has a very limited menu — mostly sandwiches (around $14), two soups, fries, and burgers. The food is overpriced and not very impressive. Also, the gift shop, while fun to browse, is quite expensive. Still, the scenery makes up for the downsides. If you manage your expectations for food and shopping, the overall experience is memorable and well worth it. Also there's only one bathroom at the bottom of the Canon

A great place to stop and stretch your legs on a long road trip and well worth the time spent. A great look into the history of the salmon runs on the river. There’s a great little ‘spooky’ self-guided tour and the suspension bridge was definitely a bit hair raising. Also, they have a penny crusher machine so make sure you have some loonies!

Skip it! Don’t waste your money here. They had the most unfriendly staff, if you can even find one. The place is like a ghost town. If I knew how rundown this place had gotten, I wouldn’t even pay $5 a person to get in let alone the hefty price of $37. Thank goodness my son under 5 still otherwise it’s $32 a kid! There are zero activities there, the “gold panning” is a disgrace - the water is a biohazard and there was barely any gravel let alone any “gold”. I feel offended for all the tourist that come here and think this place represents Canada in any way shape or form. Also, 1 single gum ball at the candy store was $23.09…. Excuse me whatttt?!?

I've been to hell's gate a number of times and it has a nice view of the Frazer river but there isn't really much to do once you've taken the airtram to the bottom. The gift store is lacking and doesn't have much things to offer but the fudge on the other had is really good. The tickets for hells gate are kind of expensive but understanding this place is more of a tourist attraction. 7/10

Super disappointing and limited experience. This is my Honest review with no filter or sugar coating. I would have given it one star but fell sorry because nature and surrounding elements are spectacular indeed. Where do we start with negatives?! First off the price set at $35 is not only steep but completely unjustified. I read a review before I went there that it’s very rundown and nothing really to do there. I didn’t believe it until I saw it with my own eyes. Once you get up across the river after a very. Beautiful but short tram ride you have a suspension bridge, a counter that was once a restaurant, a sad, overpriced and limited store, a small gallery history museum and a Fudge and candy store that sells terrible fudge by the way. The restaurant looks so run down that we didn’t order anything. They had 5-6 food choices on the menu and it’s an actual counter self serve cashier. The store sells some items and cheap souvenirs some you’d find in Vancouver aquarium and bc ferries but much more pricey. The sweet shop / ice cream fudge was a total joke. I got a sea salt and caramel. If you’ve never had a fudge in your life there is a small chance you might like it. It was salty like they dumped the salt and rolled it into a mushy paste with some hint of sweet caramel. I almost died in the first bite. The whole place seems unkept and rundown. It really is a shame because it is such a heritage site and deserves to shine. I imagine if a better owner take care of this place it could receive some boost and major upgrades.
