Places to stay in Golden, British Columbia

Golden is a town in central eastern British Columbia located 262 km west of Calgary, Alberta and 713 km east of Vancouver. Much of the town's history is tied into the Canadian Pacific Railway and the logging industry. Today, the town's economy still relies heavily on those two influences, but the development of Kicking Horse Resort, along with other outdoor adventure companies, has allowed the town to diversify into tourism. Golden is also home to one of the campuses of the College of the Rockies. Local restaurants include Niko’s Kitchen, Turning Point Restaurant, Jita’s Cafe, and The Wolf’s Den.

The Golden Taps Pub ( Dining / Pubs / Bars ). Located at 505 9th Avenue North, Golden. Golden is located about an hour west of Lake Lousie, Alberta. It is sandwiched between the majestic Rocky and Columbia Mountains. While we have all the stunning beauty of a National Park we have none of the fees and restrictions so we’re a little wilder here. We’re also in the Columbia Valley which is one of the world’s largest wetlands offering more than 300 species of birds and mammals. www.goldentapspub.com Link
