More Current

I really find your blog very helpful. This is so much more current for planning vacations than that Tourism Merritt website.

Tommy Rice

Brilliant

This is just some kind of brilliant! The people not cities marketing communities. Makes so much sense they live, work and play in the community. They are passionate about the community. Just brilliant.

If you like to go camping, hiking or spending time in nature, then you will love it!

Merritt and the Nicola Valley have the most beautiful rolling hills and pristine lakes. If you like to go camping, hiking or spending time in nature, then you will love it! An added bonus are the warm and friendly people.

Our favorite place to camp has always been Monck Park.

We have camped in BC Parks all over the Province, but our favourite has always been Monck Park. We love the Nicola Valley and this campground and park like no other!

It is a great, historic BC town offering many splendid home-cooking cafés and a lovely walk around town.

When you drive the Coquihalla between Hope and Kamloops or Kelowna, make sure you plan a rest stop in Merritt.
Take an hour, get off the highway, bypass the franchise outlets and get into town. It is a great, historic BC town offering many splendid home-cooking cafés and a lovely walk around town. If you are a bit adventurous, drive or hike up to one of two lookouts for a panorama of the town, the Valley, and a nice introduction to BC’s cattle country.
Merritt also affords a couple of easy-going walks along the Coldwater and Nicola rivers. When heading south, stopping in Merritt offers one of the last opportunities to relax and take in some fresh country air. It’s well worth a stop for coffee, a terrific bowl of soup, and a wee walk-about.

Simply stunning drive

We drove through Logan Lake to Merritt, on our way to Vancouver. Outstanding! Simply stunning, as is the Arts Centre.
