Revelstoke Walking Tour
Pick up free brochures for this self-guided walking tour at the city hall, visitor information center, and retailers around the city, and then spend an afternoon wandering along city streets and past historic buildings to see how the town was built around the railroad more than a century ago.
Glacier National Park of Canada
The western entrance of Glacier National Park is only 30 minutes northeast of Revelstoke on the Trans-Canada Highway, making the park an easy day trip from town. The park offers deep valleys filled with ancient forests and sublime alpine scenery. Some of the higher-elevation trails are accessible only during the height of summer, so check weather conditions in the park before you set out on a particular trail. One of the most famous hikes, the Highline Loop, offers spectacular scenery as it brings you along the Continental Divide, also known as the Garden Wall.
Miller Lake
Miller Lake, which is situated near town in Mount Revelstoke National Park, provides hikers with stunning views of the snow-covered mountains and sparkling-blue glacial water. The hike up to the lake takes about two hours and brings you through various alpine landscapes, including wildflower meadows and giant boulder formations.
