鶹
Purchase options and add-ons
Explore the natural glory of hot springs with the updated 4th edition of Hot Springs of Western Canada.
Hot springs are among western Canada’s most enjoyable attractions. Some are famous, like Fairmont and Harrison, and have posh resorts built around them. Some, like Hot Springs Cove in Clayoquot Sound, cascade through a series of natural pools. Many more are hidden away in the wilderness, known only to locals―or owners of this guidebook.
A perennial bestseller now in its fourth updated edition, Hot Springs of Western Canada is a comprehensive guide to roughly 115 hot springs located mostly in BC, but also in Alberta, Yukon, the western Northwest Territories and even near the border in Washington and Alaska. It covers access, conditions, history and noteworthy details of these enticing natural wonders. Additionally, there are numerous colour photographs and engaging preface articles explaining the science and history of hot springs. This guide is a must-have for anyone who enjoys a soothing soak, either in a popular park or in the privacy of the wilderness.
