With Fernie as your home base, here are just a few of our daytripping favourites!
Silver Springs
To access Silver Springs, take a short 20-minute drive on Highway 3 toward Cranbrook. Once you reach the townsite of Elko, cross the bridge and make an immediate left-hand turn. The road will wind through town. Take the first gravel road on the left and cross the Elk River Bridge for three kilometres.
