I had the opportunity to tour Jones Distilling and was more than impressed with the premises, the distillery, and the smoothest vodka I've ever tasted. The head distiller (Megan) is clearly well-versed in her craft and the pride in her award-winning product shows. I look forward to the restaurant opening across the hall from the distillery. I'm encouraging family and friends to make Jones Distilling a priority when in Revelstoke.

Giant Cedars Boardwalk Trail

Reviewed By CalgaryDukefan - Calgary, Canada

It is very easy to drive right by some road side stops. This is one to stop and smell the cedar. A very well constructed boardwalk brings you into an oasis minutes from the highway. It is an easy walk through a forest featuring magical cedars and plenty of other vegetation. Highly recommend making the stop as both kids and adults will enjoy.

Definitely check out Moses Falls. 10 minute hike (or walk) to the falls. Keep walking down the path as there is 2 sets of falls. Spectacular falls right off the side of the road.

Big thank you to Kolton for such a fun visit to Monashee Spirits! I had seen various cocktails on social media and had to check them out for myself - they did not disappoint. I had a creamy vodka drink with whipped cream and my boyfriend had whisky and gin drinks. All of the drinks were beautifully put together and worth the trip. Can't wait to go back during ski season!

Skunk Cabbage Boardwalk

Reviewed By DaleH207 - Osoyoos, Canada

We visited mid October so as everybody says the cabbage is pretty much done. The stroll was peaceful and beautiful even so. We will probably visit again next June to see it in full bloom. Although the parking lot is easy to access I would warn large RV's that it may be cramped down there in the busy summer months. If you can get in it sure is worth the time. Admission is free except you must have a park pass to stop in the National Parks.
