of old mining equipment and a blacksmith shop.
The village has a nice municipal campground
and day park at the lake’s edge. Across the lake
is Valhalla Provincial Park, a place for serious
backcountry adventurers. Access is by water
taxi, hiking trail at lake level or via rough gravel
roads into the interior of the park at the village
of Slocan.
South from Silverton, access Kokanee
Glacier Provincial Park on Enterprise Road,
where there is parking at the trailhead. A day
hike or overnight backpack is well worth the time
to get you into one of British Columbia’s high
country parks.
Stop at the Village of Slocan on the south
end of Slocan Lake, where Valhalla Provincial
Park may be accessed on foot. For those who
enjoy a short walk, view the Springer Creek falls
located alongside Springer Creek RV Park &
Campground, or look at the longer falls above
