Merritt is a city in the Nicola Valley region of the Thompson-Shuswap region of British Columbia. There isn't much to see in town, other than a certain vintage Old West flavour, but as a location makes it a convenient place to stop for a rest or to get some food.

[edit] Get in

Merritt is at the junction of four highways, of which the Coquihalla (Hwy 5) and the Okanagan Connector (Hwy 97C) are the most important. This makes it easily accessible by car from Vancouver (2.5 - 3 hours), Kamloops (40-60 minutes) and Kelowna (1 hour).
