Indulge in a Bit of R&R

There’s nothing better than soaking in healing waters in the fresh air – and, when you stay at Bighorn Meadows Resort, you’ll have a choice between three options: the Radium Hot Springs Pools, Fairmont Hot Springs (30 minutes to the south) or Lussier Hot Springs in White Swan Provincial Park (a one-hour drive to the southeast). Each of these muscle-melting hot springs is accessible to everyone and surrounded by a spectacular mountain setting. Closest to the resort is Radium, which comprises two pools – one warm and one cool – whose mineral-rich waters are uniquely odourless, and offer an inviting place to wind down at the end of a long day.
