Radium Hot Springs lies in the Sinclair Canyon of Kootenay National Park, British Columbia, where hot mineral water emerges between near-vertical walls of red rock. Parks Canada runs a hot soaking pool and a cooler swimming pool on the site.

Почему стоит поехать
The canyon setting is exceptional, and unlike most mountain springs the water carries almost no sulphur, so it is clear and odourless.
