Located in southern British Columbia, Kamloops is an inland hub city of about 100,000 people at the intersection of Highway 1 running north-south and Highway 97 running east-west. As the "Watersports Capital of Canada", the city is surrounded by over 100 lakes and rivers, and attracts visitors with four seasons of outdoor activities, from swimming, kayaking, and fishing in the summer to skiing at Cypress Hills in the winter. The city's economy is based on agriculture (fruit, livestock), education (Thompson Rivers University), and tourism, while retaining a rich aboriginal culture, characterized by the traditional arts and historical sites of the local Kamloops Indian Reservation. With its pleasant climate, easy access to public transportation and diverse natural and cultural experiences, Kamloops is the ideal gateway for exploring B.C.'s interior.
