Dreamcatcher Hostel, Golden BC

The Dreamcatcher Hostel is conveniently located in downtown Golden and within easy walking distance from pubs, restaurants, grocery shops, outdoor shops, clothing stores, banks, mountain bike rental, a book store and several adventure companies. Golden is perfectly placed to explore the very best of the Rockies without the crowds and inflated prices. Take a walk along the riverside paths and enjoy the friendly community.

In creating Dreamcatcher Hostel, Gerald Wagner & Abi Marsh wanted to provide a haven for weary travellers and a base for outdoor adventurers; somewhere to kick back and relax, meet like-minded individuals and travel on refreshed and renewed. The hostel prides itself on having fantastically comfortable beds with real mattresses and down duvets.

There are plenty of splendid sights within a half hour’s drive, including the Wolf Centre (to see and learn about wolves), and Kicking Horse Mountain Resort (where you can take a gondola up the mountain to visit Boo, the resident grizzly bear!). Eat dinner at the highest restaurant in North America, the Eagles Eye and drink in the fabulous views, or hike up to Thompson Falls, or visit Mount Seven to watch the paragliders jump, admire the far-reaching views of mountains and valleys or hike to the peak. Golden also has outdoor swimming pools and children's spray parks.

A staggering variety of outdoor activities are available for you: mountain biking, snowboarding, para-gliding, hiking, skiing, rafting, kayaking, quadding, snow-mobiling, back country skiing, fishing, horse riding. Your stay is sure to be action packed and exciting.

"Welcome to Dreamcatcher Hostel, where all guests leave as friends. We will be your home away from home during your stay in Golden!
