Harrison Hot Springs

Considered the Jewel of the Fraser Valley, Harrison Hot Springs is nestled against Southwestern British Columbia's magnificent coastal mountains on the sandy shores of 60 km long Harrison Lake. It is a vacation destination filled with natural wonders and a rich history.

Situated at the southern end of Harrison Lake, Harrison Hot Springs is a small, quiet row of low buildings facing the sandy beach and lagoon. As the name implies, there are hot springs here. Really good ones, called the "Spa of Canada", where visitors can soak in the two 58 to 62 degree Celsius mountain springs all year round (136 to 143 Degrees Fahrenheit). An indoor mineral hot pool is available for the public to enjoy.

Historically, the area is known as the start of one of the earliest routes to the gold fields, the Douglas Trail. The Village of Harrison Hot Springs was only incorporated in 1949, but the history stretches back much further.

Population: 1,609

Location: Harrison Hot Springs is located on the southern shore of Harrision Lake, 5 miles (8 km) north of Agassiz on the Lougheed Highway 7, and 77 miles (123 km) east of Vancouver.
