Harrison Hot Springs

Community Overview

Harrison Hot Springs, part of the Harrison River Valley, is distinguished by natural hot springs, hiking trails, kayaking, forest bathing, and compelling agri-tourism experiences. It is situated along Lougheed Highway (Highway 7), which parallels the Fraser River.

The Harrison section of the ETF starts at the entrance to the Village of Harrison Hot Springs, a welcoming community offering watersports, wildlife viewing, fishing, and other outdoor activities. As the trail continues north, it utilizes wide-shouldered paths leading towards the beach at Harrison Lake. The route then transitions onto Lillooet Road and Eagle Street, ultimately ending along a newly developed mixed-use gravel path along McComb Drive.

About The Info on This Page - Canyon to Coast Trail

The information on this page currently focuses on the Canyon to Coast Trail component. Experience the Fraser (ETF) is a recreational, cultural and heritage project that extends along the Lower Fraser River Corridor connecting Hope to the Salish Sea. The project consists of three main components:

  • Greenway - The Canyon to Coast Trail

  • Blueway - recreational use of the river

  • Experiences & Attractions - major attractions and experiences, community amenities and feature points

The information provided here is specifically related to the Greenway - The Canyon to Coast Trail which is the backbone of the overall ETF project. As of 2023, a continuous route has been mapped; however wayfinding signage for the route has not been fully implemented. Community reports, maps, and other information shared here are a resource for communities for informational and planning purposes only. The final route will be determined collaboratively with partners as part of the ETF implementation process.
