Escape to a place where peace and quiet are inescapable and fun and adventure await; where scenery speaks for the people who come to be among it; and where rich experiences are born in a natural world that surrounds you at every turn. Central to it all, yet a world of its own. Come to look. Be ready to feel.

The hot springs were first visited by the Ktunaxa First Nations peoples who experienced the waters as a welcome respite after a long day of hunting, fishing, and gathering roots and berries in what is now known as the Kootenay region. The Ktunaxa First Nations peoples embraced the nupika wu’u, or hot mineral waters, for their healing and rejuvenating powers and Ainsworth Hot Springs has been welcoming guests since the 1930s.
