About Us

Radium Hot Springs is a place for both adventure and relaxation. 

About the Village of Radium

Radium Hot Springs is an idyllic mountain town nestled between the towering peaks of the Canadian Rockies and Purcell Mountains, with the Columbia River running down its spine. Visitors enter the Village of Radium through the iconic Sinclair Canyon where they are immediately greeted with pristine views and vistas. At the crossroads of highways 93 and 95, Radium Hot Springs is also at the crossroads of adventure and relaxation.

Whether you are seeking a journey of heart-pumping adventure or a quiet weekend to recharge in nature, you will find it here. With our friendly faces and open spaces, you’ll be treated like a local in this small mountain village.

The Village takes its name from the famous Radium Hot Springs pools. Tucked just within Kootenay National Park, the Radium Hot Springs pools are filled with naturally heated mineral waters nestled in a canyon. Open rockfaces surround the pools, and the Bighorn sheep can occasionally be seen grazing or wandering nearby. In the colder months, the hot springs pools turn into a magical winter getaway, surrounded by pillows of snow and under the starry night sky. 

Find endless outdoor activities and adventure in Radium. Hiking trails leading to waterfalls, paddles down the Columbia River, and warm rounds of golf await in the summer months. In the winter months, find blissful escapes to skate on the Lake Windermere Whiteway, ski at Panorama Mountain Resort, or winter hike on one of the trails around the Village.

Take a look at a map, and you’ll find that adventure is closer than you think.
