Pickup in Vancouver

Your driver picks you up around Vancouver in the morning before heading east into the Fraser Valley, one of British Columbia's most fertile agricultural regions. Watch the cityscape give way to farmland, mountains, and the wide, glacier-fed Fraser River as you make your way toward the resort village of Harrison Hot Springs, tucked at the southern tip of Harrison Lake beneath forested peaks.

Harrison Hot Springs

Arrive at Harrison Hot Springs, a lakeside village known for its mineral-rich hot spring pools, fed by natural thermal springs discovered by prospectors in the 1850s. Enjoy free time to relax in the public hot spring pools (admission optional), stroll the sandy lakeshore beach, or browse the small-town shops and cafes, all set against a backdrop of forested mountains rising straight from the lake's edge.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does this compare to the hot springs in Alberta?

Harrison's mineral profile and pools are different from Banff or Radium — milder, family-oriented, and set on a lake rather than in the mountains.

Do we need to bring a swimsuit and towel?

Yes, bring your own — the public pool doesn't include rentals.

Is this a good trip for families?

Yes — it's one of our more relaxed day trips, with no long hikes or driving.
