This is a quiet forested residential area in Sinixt territory. Recommended activities include floating down the river, canoeing the lake, hiking or climbing in Valhalla Park, soaking in Halfway Hot Springs or indulging in Nelson. We are surrounded by beautiful mountains and rivers. This valley has many outdoor activities and events and a very interesting history and culture including Sinixt, Doukhobor, Cannabis and Conscientious Objector. Nelson, Castlegar and Slocan Lake are all a half hour drive away. There are many other special places nearby such as the Goddess Pools and the Emerald Pools. Supplies and services are available nearby including firewood, toiletries, dog day care, massage, bike and canoe rentals, life jackets, rubber dingys and paddles etc. Let us know if you would like a referral to any of these services. There are many guides available for activities in the area including (water sports, climbing, skiing, hiking, artist tours, events, geology, mining, mushrooms, cannabis, garden tours and native history). There is a particularly valued native storyteller here that can also provide a walking tour to a nearby village site with a full scale replica of an aboriginal kekuli (earth house). Please call ahead for recommendations on booking guides or storytellers. You don't need one to get here, but its good to have a 4 wheel drive vehicle for some of the logging roads that are worth visiting. Roof and/or bike racks can also come in handy. The Vallican Whole community center also has events nearby.

Tent Site 1 - Valhalla Pines

Tent site 1 is at the corner of the property and along the main road. There was plenty of shade and a bit of a view up the valley. This was a nice semi-central location to the activities we scheduled. I appreciated having the community building for showers and cooking. We had a positive experience with Yuki, a Valhalla Pines work-stay employee. Our son had mentioned that he wanted to learn Japanese before arriving. We told Yuki and she made our children hand made gifts: letters of the katakana alphabet stored in origami pouches! It was very sweet.

Tent Site 12

A nice place to stop!

We had a fine time camping overnight at Valhalla Pines. Site 12 had the perfect size tent space for our three person tent, the showers/bathrooms were clean and pleasant, and everyone we met in the community area was friendly! We'd definitely stop by again.

We would go back!!!

This campsite was amazing. It was a tent site and there is electricity which was very convenient for a travelling with two toddlers. We enjoyed the community building a lot. There is a fridge and freezer so we didn’t have to worry about storing our food or bringing pots and pans and dishes. Best of all the area it is absolutely gorgeous in this part of BC. Tom was a great communicator and was just lovely to be around
