While exploring downtown Golden, stroll on the newly built River Walk, opened in October 2021, and over the Kicking Horse Pedestrian Bridge at 8th Ave North. Golden is celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Kicking Horse Pedestrian Bridge, which spans the river of the same name.  At 46 meters (151 feet) across, it’s the longest freestanding timber frame bridge in Canada. In 2001, over 100 members of the Timber Framers Guild came from the US, Europe and all over Canada to help raise the bridge

A short hike through dense woodlands will lead you to some beautiful waterfalls. Although short, there are some steep sections and many roots and rocks to negotiate. Head to Beeland in Spillimacheen afterwards for the best ice cream in the valley.

Food scene

Favourite tacos ever! Not only is the food incredible, but they do wicked cocktails and have an outdoor seated area for summertime and heated geodomes for the winter. "Lets Taco 'bout Food. The Reposados way is to use only the freshest produce to create simple, healthy & delicious fusions inspired by the flavours of Mexico."
