Introduction
Uncrowded, unpolluted, unspoiled. That's Clearwater, the Gateway to Wells Gray Provincial Park, located north of Kamloops on the Yellowhead Highway. As its name suggests, Clearwater is a place of pure, clear water, but that only hints at the untouched beauty that makes up the area around Clearwater. Today, Clearwater is a vacation paradise, with the majestic mountains of the world famous Wells Gray Provincial Park serving as a picturesque backdrop. The remote wilderness, the virgin forest, and the rivers, lakes and streams all combine to make Clearwater all that it claims to be. Clearwater has three centres; the old village beside the Thompson River, the new townsite on the far side of the Clearwater Bridge, and beside the highway are a few hotels, restaurants, gas stations, services and the Visitor Info Centre.
