Hydro's Revelstoke Dam, one of North America's largest
and most modern hydro-electric developments, is located
only a few minutes drive north of Revelstoke.
The dam
offers guided tours, featuring individual talking wands.
This multi-level visitor centre includes a large exhibit
area and a theatre. |
| One of
Revelstoke's best kept secrets is our 18 hole, riverside
golf course. With the majestic Monashee and Selkirk
Mountains as a backdrop, the
Revelstoke Golf Club was established in 1924 and it
has been described as "a gem of a course".

The par 72,
6513 yard layout along the Columbia River affords
incredible mountain views in all directions. |
 |
With
many area mountains topping 10,000 ft, you have the
opportunity to climb on glaciers and high alpine
meadows, either by hiking up marked trails, or taking a
ride in a helicopter to some very remote & untouched
wilderness areas.
Revelstoke is
very fortunate to be the home of two spectacular
National Parks - Mount Revelstoke National Park and
Glacier National Park. |
| Come
and explore the natural beauty that these mountainous
parks offer.
You can
discover the fascinating story of the Rogers Pass
National Historic Site on "Abandoned Rails Trail", "Loop
Brook Trail", and at "Glacier House", the ruins of one
of Canadian Pacific's great hotels of the past.
Located
at the summit of the pass, the Rogers Pass Centre
includes a theatre, a hall of railway models and natural
history exhibits. The Rogers Pass Centre is a definite
stop and is open year round. |
