Regional Attractions

Every Type of Recreation and Entertainment

With Abbotsford as your home base, you're at the centre of a small universe of opportunities for recreation and entertainment. It all depends on how you like to have fun. Golf ... tour a winery ... Reel in a trout or salmon ... Watch motorsports ... or whales ... Soak in a hot spring or climb a rock face. Go mountain biking or skiing ... Sail the sea, comb the beach ... or mosey through a farmer's market. Take a hot air balloon ride ... or take in an opera. You can do all these - and a whole lot more. Here are a few links to specific area attractions, followed by a few more links that will let you discover some of the region's pleasures on your own.

• Every Saturday from May to October, local produce growers, small-scale food producers, and creative artisans set up shop in downtown Abbotsford in one the region's largest and most successful country markets.
• Have a relaxing soak in the warm mineral waters of Harrison Hot Springs at the south end of Harrison Lake just a short drive from Abbotsford.
• See one of the world's greatest flying air shows ... the Abbotsford International Airshow.
