Summer activities are hiking, fishing, caving, mountain biking, music festivals, farmer’s markets, street entertainment, Timber Day Festival, Railways Days and the Kokanee Glacier Exchange. The Revelstoke Museum, located in the old office, outlines the city’s history. The Revelstoke Dam is a fun place for a family outing but the best ways to pass the summer is to ease your aches and pains in the nearby hot springs.

Revelstoke is an hour’s drive from Glacier National Park. The park has over 400 glaciers. The nearby Rogers Pass Centre outlines the history of Rogers Pass and gives good info about the area’s eco-system. Pack your camera, the entire area is a paradise for nature photographers.
