Kimberley,
BC
The Highest City in Canada
This
Bavarian-inspired city has charming tole-painted accents,
shuttered windows and gaily painted facades.
Along
the Platzl, an esplanade punctuated with picturesque shops,
hanging baskets and hand-painted fire hydrants, a life-sized
Happy Hans emerges hourly from his room atop the world's largest
Cuckoo Clock.
Scenic
biking and hiking paths thread through Kimberley Nature Park.
The Mark Creek Nature Trail leads to Marysville Falls, a 100'
cascade of water over rocks worn smooth.
The
chairlift at North Star Mountain offers unrivalled views of
the Rocky Mountains.
The
community of Kimberley is located in the BC Rockies region
on Highway 95A, 32 km. north of Cranbrook.
