Harrison Hot Springs, surrounded by mountains, on the shores of
pristine Harrison Lake and blessed with incredible natural
hot springs is the perfect place to escape the big city. Best
of all, it's only 90 minutes from Vancouver. As one of the
first tourist destinations in B.C., Harrison has been providing
tired Vancouverites a place to relax and recharge for more
than 100 years, offering magical spring water that would heal
pretty much anything that ailed you, or so it was said. These
days the magical spring water is still very popular but Harrison Hot Springs offers so much more, from hiking local mountains,
to biking nearby farm country, to paddling the pristine Harrison River.
Harrison
Hot Springs has seen something of a renaissance the last few
years with a new pedestrian-friendly Esplanade, revitalized
central plaza, new beach playground and, of course, an incredible
lake with beautiful sandy beaches. Summers can be busy in
Harrison with the lake and beach offering the perfect family
vacation, with one of the biggest attractions being Harrison's
own version of the "Wipe Out Zone": the Harrison
floating waterpark. Boat tours, Eco tours, kayak rentals,
and bumper boats are all our great ways to experience the
lake.
Hiking
around the Harrison area is a completely different experience,
offering a chance to get away from crowded paths and trails
and get in touch with real nature. Harrison offers a variety
of local trails for different levels of ability but all take
you into a setting that sees few people and is truly natural,
truly wild.

Interested
in the local agricultural scene? Then check out Agassiz
& Harrison Mills Circle Farm Tours, a free self-guided
tour that takes you to a variety of farms and food producers
in the Agassiz Harrison area. From Farm House Natural Cheeses
to the Back Porch pottery & basketry studio as well as

Harrison
has a number of great events every year, including the Harrison
Festival of the Arts, now in its 38th year, the Harrison
Beer Festival, the Agassiz Farms Cycle Tour, Harrison
Uncorked Wine Festival, the Harrison Dragon Boat Regatta,
Harrison Lakeside Car Show, and probably one of the
best small-town Canada Days Celebration anywhere in
B.C. You can learn about all the events at Harrison events.
Of course
Harrison is known for its hot springs. Harrison has
two hot springs that are combined to create the unique Harrison Hot Springs healing waters. Guests staying at the Harrison
Hot Springs Resort and Spa may access the resort pools while
the public pool is centrally located at the junction of Hot Springs Road and the Esplanade and is available to all visitors
to Harrison Hot Springs.
