Well, Valemont is a nice little town. I saw my first salomon there. There is a bakery and some nice Restaurants and a very helpful Visitor Center.So make a stop there and relax ...

Worth the stop. A very quick instructive visit. Half hour. We wish we could have been there in August to see the salmons

Easy to get to good view point if you don't want to hike anywhere. They've built a nice viewing area to see the salmon without disturbing them. It's not my favorite place as I like hiking out more but good for older people and those who don't want to walk much.

Very special place where you can see salmons swimming upstream (if going between mid August- end of September)

Apparently a prime location to watch the salmon spawn (in late August and September). Please be respectful and responsible and do not touch or otherwise interact with spawning salmon!!

Great wetland nature sanctuary, trails are good and well marked. Mountain views that surround you are stunning.

Nice little park, best time to come is when the salmon are spawning, during middle of August, and watch them on the board walk or bridge

A nice stop while in Valemount.There are pit toilets (and apparently toilets inside the nearby tourist info centre during business hours). Picnic tables are available, and there are several interpretive displays of the salmon that spawn here in August. The Chinook Salmon range in size from 6 kg to 25 kg.There is a footbridge across the small creek (Swift Creek), and a platform to enable viewing of the spawning salmon.A great little park to enjoy a leg stretch from the highway and, if you time it right, see the salmon spawn after their 1300 km swim up the Fraser River and Swift Creek.
