Located close to the downtown Golden is the Kicking Horse Hostel. We have been operating as a backpackers haven for close to 10 years, and in that time we have had a lot of fun. Recently we have gotten busier with the opening of the KHMR. It has CANADA' s largest vertical, with the worlds newest facilities. All this is without the lineups (queues) of the major resorts. Let them have their fame, you’ll be too busy playing.  How can you go wrong?
