Driving Directions:From Nakusp drive approx. 26km North to Halfway River. Just before going over the bridge that crosses the halfway river, there is a FSR to the right. Turn onto this road and drive approx. 11.5km to the parking on main FSR. From Galena Bay drive approx. 22km South. On the drive you will pass Halcyon hot springs on your left. As you continue the drive keep your eyes open for the halfway river. Slow down driving over the bridge at Halfway River and take your first left on the FSR after the bridge.

The left takes you down into the newly developed camping area, and a small amount of day use parking. The right will take you to the upper parking lot which is the best place to park for day use, and access to the main pools.

Nice shady spots. Trail to hot springs close. No power. Tables and fire pits. Camp hosts so nice. They work really hard to keep area clean and beautiful for all. Pay it forward, take your trash out and please don't leave your cigarette butts!!!!
