Rolling hills, sparkling lakes, and endless hours of sunshine every year make Merritt a haven for four-season outdoor recreation. The summer offers some of the best sailing and windsurfing in North America, and nearby Nicola Lake offers endless choices for water activities. The area is also known for the beautiful horseback riding opportunities as well as camping, and fishing. An almost endless trail system renowned for mountain biking and hiking are also at your fingertips. Winter brings champagne powder and opportunities for Nordic skiing, snowshoeing, snowmobiling, ice fishing, and curling. Merritt also enjoys a thriving arts community - with an art gallery located in Merritt’s historic Court House, and an active Arts Council, the communities’ arts are flourishing.
