Nestled in the BC interior, the town of Ashcroft is a hidden gem. With a population of just 1670, this friendly community offers a slower pace of life that’s perfect for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of city living, yet still close to Kamloops, which is a city of over 100,000 people.
Ashcroft was a town of the Gold Rush. The days of horses pulling buggies and cowboys hungry for the chance to strike it rich. Named after the Ashcroft Manor, the town became a stopover place for the gold rush seekers. The Canadian Pacific Railway came to the town in 1884, dropping off supplies and tools for the minors. The town still remains a predominantly ranching and logging town. Within the town you can find a museum, Community Hall, parks, indoor pool and hockey arena plus many other services the residence enjoy year round.
Today, the region still has a very dry climate and is frequently one of the hottest places in BC, almost a pocket desert. The winters are short and mild.
