Frequently Asked Questions

Is it Radium or Fairmont Hot Springs?

Usually Radium — Sinclair Canyon is right on the route. We can point you to Fairmont instead if you'd prefer, a short drive further south.

What should we bring?

A swimsuit and towel for the hot springs; the pools and change rooms are on-site.

Is this a long day?

Yes — it's a full 12-hour day given the driving distance, but entirely on scenic mountain highway.
