Welcome to Kamloops

(Weyt-kp Tk'emlúps)

Located on the traditional lands of the Tk̓emlúps te Secwépemc, Kamloops sits at the confluence of two mighty rivers that pulse through the veins of the Thompson Valley.

This is a city of contrasts, where people, land, and culture meet—the kind of place where intrepid entrepreneurs, rugged ranchers, and nature lovers swap tales over a pint. We might be the straight-shooting type, but our soul is kind. Raise the rainbow flag, attend a vibrant powwow, or head out on a wine-tasting tour. Be yourself and feel welcome doing it.

With mountains, vast valleys, and sparkling lakes at our doorstep, adventure is never far away. Get your adrenaline fix on gravity-fueled trails, reel in the big one, or tee off at one of our picturesque golf courses. Wherever you roam, find space to breathe; somewhere between the endless horizons and the starlit skies.
