Beautiful construction. You can tell it’s not an old bridge. But still a beautiful wooden covered bridge.
2. Spirit Square
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 13 reviews
The plaza in the centre of town. A beautiful place where people gather next to the timber frame pedestrian bridge. There flowers, a fountain, farmers market, concerts and a little outdoor pub steps away.

A fine River side walk will take you to Spirit Square and the amazing Covered woodern Bridge and the adjoining walks make Spirit Square a must see in Golden. Listen to the samll water feature and smell the garden flowers or take a break in one of the adjoining patios and truly smell the coffee (or in my case taste a cold beer!).
3. World's Largest Paddle
Overall Ratings

Certified by GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS® title as the 'Largest Hand Paddle / Oar' and based on an actual paddle, this proportionally correct monolith is scaled up 13 times to over 60 feet - perfect for a 78-foot giant! Nestled below the towering Canadian Rocky Mountains, the World’s Largest Paddle provides breathtaking views of the surrounding Columbia River Valley near Golden BC.
4. Thompson Falls

Very difficult hike. If your a senior or have any disability hiking sticks a must. Round trip from the trailhead is close to 12 miles, on Syd’s trail. My GPS said we climbed 50 stories. Also parts of the trail was muddy and difficult to get thru while keeping your feet dry. The falls should really be called a gorge. The end of the hike leads you to a beautiful overlook of both the Rockies and the gorge. Took us close to 6 hours round trip, make sure you have mosquito repellent if you return late in the day
