Kilometres (168 miles) northeast of Vancouver in the heart of the Nicola Valley.
With a population of approximately 8,000, and a trading area of approximately
15,000, Merritt is the commercial centre for the area. Summer, Winter, Spring or Fall…there is a lot to keep you busy in Merritt. Merritt is a wonderful place for outdoor enthusiasts, In winter the cross country skiing is superb and there are many snowmobiling trails. In summer Nicola Lake will lure you for a cooling dip, or
skimming the surface waters via windsurfer or sailboat - there's a good chance
of a steady breeze. Spring, summer and fall - hike or bike through our beautiful valley. One of our mottos is "A Lake a Day as Long as You Stay". Merritt is known for some of the best flyfishing in the world. Spin casters are welcome too of course! There are quite a number of camping areas around, including Claybanks right in the heart of Merritt, on the banks of the Coldwater River. Hunting? There's game in them thar hills! This is Ranch Country - check out historical Nicola Ranch. Of course in cowboy country there's ample opportunity for horseback riding. Into horsepower of a different sort? Merritt has a Speedway as well as Rally Car races. |
