    Come explore our dams

    BC Hydro’s W.A.C. Bennett Dam, situated on the Peace River west of Hudson’s Hope, is celebrating 40 years. Join us for an exciting underground bus tour of one of the world's largest earth-filled structures. We will drive right through the canyon wall that will take us to the powerhouse—500 feet underground. The facility is open daily from May 17 to September 1 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.

    The site of Peace Canyon Dam tells the story of the canyon dating back to the time of the dinosaur. Two life-size models of the Hadrosaur dinosaur, fossils and photos tell this story in our visitor's centre. Seasonal hours are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. daily from May 17 to September 1 with guided tours available. Off-season hours are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on weekdays only with self-guided tours available.

    Experience golf at its best

    Thanks to a stunning environment, the golf courses at the Radium Resort feature some of the most powerful visuals and hair-raising holes found in the Kootenay Rockies.

While The Springs is ranked as one of the top-100 courses in Canada by SCORE Magazine, the sporty Resort course shouldn't be missed either. The friendly staff at the Radium Resort is always willing to look after your needs. With course-side rooms, fine dining and spa facilities, unpack your bags and stay awhile!
