Kimberley
British Columbia
Kimberley, one of Canada's highest cities, is a unique town in the scenic Purcell Mountains. The Bavarian-themed downtown and the Platzl, a pedestrian mall, give this town a wonderful charm. Wandering minstrels and a giant cuckoo clock add the finishing touches to this European atmosphere. For those interested in more of a quiet stroll, the Kimberley Community Gardens offer a bountiful array of colorful flowers. Experience the Outdoors A variety of outdoor activities are within reach, including hiking, biking, camping and fishing. Kimberly's high-speed quad chairlift offers access to hiking, mountain biking, and a high-altitude BBQ all summer long. The alpine slide at the Kimberley Ski and Summer Resort promises a thrill a minute as you snake your way down the side of the mountain, surrounded by spectacular scenery all the way. Local rafting companies offer memorable excursions down the rapids of the St. Mary's River, offering great views and thrills at the same time. If adrenaline isn't your thing, the river is also known for world-class trout fishing, so make sure to bring your flies! Marysville Falls can be found close by with a wooden walkway leading to the spectacular 100 ft waterfall. Top-Rate Links Golf Enthusiasts won't be disappointed either. The Kimberly area is home to a number of top-notch golf courses and resorts, each with something unique to offer. Trickle Creek Golf Resort is among the top rated courses in North America; a title that's hard to dispute when visitors and locals alike take to this 72 par, rolling course tucked in-between the staggering scenery of the Purcell Mountain Range. Other superb courses include the Bootleg Gap and the Kimberly Golf Resorts.  |
