At West Kootenay Park Management Inc., it is our goal to ensure our guests have the ultimate camping and visitor experience in any of our parks.
Welcome to the heart of the West Kootenays. Not quite the Rockies, not the Okanagan, but a region that stands on its own. 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.
Halcyon’s location is one block away from downtown Nakusp. Across the street, there is a beautiful park as well as a beach with a view that will take your breath away.
Welcome to the heart of the West Kootenays. Quiet roads. Restful villages. Unspoiled landscapes. A place where time passes slowly and life is less complicated. Where aimless wandering is not just accepted, but encouraged. Where the journey truly is the destination.
