Make a splash at the Radium Hot Pools
Wednesday, May 30th, 2007 by GetawayBC.com
The story of the Radium Hot Springs is as old as the Rocky Mountains where they are located. Even before Europeans discovered this area, the First Nations people knew of the healing power of the hot pools. From a first concrete pool, built in 1914, Radium has developed into the largest hot spring pool in Canada and the water’s temperature is a comfortable 39 degrees. There is a shallow lounging area, perfect for children and a 25 metre long cooler pool complete with diving board. A luxurious new day spa is offering an array of massage and wellness treatments, plunge pools and a steam room.
