Valley View Trail

Hiking the Valley View Trail is a quick outing in Fairmont Hot Springs that will allow you to enjoy the woodland beauty of the surrounding landscape. The trail sets out from the parking lot and climbs uphill along a densely forested path that will provide a pleasant, relaxing atmosphere as you work your way up towards the ski slopes. Eventually, the route will turn to the north and a bit more sharply uphill. Along this portion of the trail, you will have some views through the tree cover of the Columbia Valley below and the surrounding mountains. Reaching the top of the trail, you will begin to descend to the portion of the hike that runs parallel to Fairmont Creek. Follow the flowing waters of the creek to eventually return to the trailhead where you began your hike.
