Whistler Hiking Trails

Whistler is surrounded by several amazing Garibaldi Park hiking trails, as well as many more on Whistler Mountain & Blackcomb Mountain.  Still more trails extend down the valley like Cirque Lake, Train Wreck, Brandywine Meadows and many, many more...

Garibaldi Provincial Park

Garibaldi Park now allows wilderness camping!  It costs the same as it does to camp at Garibaldi Lake, Taylor Meadows, Helm Creek, Cheakamus Lake, Singing Creek, Russet Lake, Wedgemount Lake, Elfin Lakes & Rampart Ponds.  More info here..

Skookumchuck Hot Springs(aka T'sek Hot Springs and St. Agnes Well), located two hours north of Whistler along the edge of the huge Lillooet River. The name Skookumchuck means "strong water" in the language of the Chinook people of the Pacific Northwest. The name is associated with the hot springs because of the nearby First Nation community of Skatin, which was once called Skookumchuck.

  • Very scenic drive along Lillooet Lake
  • Stunning campsites along the river
  • Sleep 1 minute away from the springs
  • Drive in campsites are very convenient
  • Helpful volunteer caretaker resides there
  • Drive in campsites are very convenient
  • Skookumchuck has an interesting history
  • Rules & fees increasing with new owners
  • Very busy on weekends in summer
  • On first glance the tubs looks shabby

The Skookumchuck Hot Springs were also once known as St. Agnes Well during the days of the Fraser Canyon Gold Rush, but that name has fallen into disuse. They are also known locally by the Skatin name as the T'sek Hot Springs.  The Skookumchuck Hot Springs start in a pool which is far to hot to use so there are a network of tubes emanating from this pool to feed a ramshackle array of tubs. There are five tubs, which include one very large one under an A-frame which could hold 10 people and is beautifully comfortable. A smaller one under a half A-frame privacy screen which could hold 8 under the stars.  And three more open tubs. Clothing, you will quickly discover, is optional.  There are small change rooms and one outhouse a few metres away.
