Snowmobiling
Snowmobiling (Don Weixl photo)
The Kootenay Rockies region has a diverse geography of high mountain passes and sweeping valleys, and is a prime snowmobiling destination in British Columbia.
From mid-November to mid-May, an annual average snowfall of 1.7 to 2.6m/5.6 to 8.6ft ensures excellent powder conditions for traversing the region’s varied terrain. An extensive network of groomed trails and untouched alpine territory offers sledders of all experience levels unprecedented access to southeastern British Columbia’s remarkable landscape.
Local operators throughout the Kootenay Rockies region provide a range of accommodation options (from suites to deluxe log cabins) and guided tour packages.

Elkford and Revelstoke
Elkford and Revelstoke are two of Canada’s most popular snowmobiling destinations, each hosting up to 20,000 sledders annually.
Elkford, situated in the High Rock Range of the Canadian Rockies, offers “from porch to powder” access to snowmobile trails throughout the remote Elk Valley – the “Wilderness Capital of British Columbia.”
Revelstoke, nestled along the Columbia River, between the Selkirk and Monashee Mountain ranges, boasts a seven-month long snowmobiling season. The Snowmobile Revelstoke Society maintains pristinely groomed trails throughout Boulder Mountain, Frisby Ridge, and Sale Mountain, and provides general snowmobiling information, including safety tips, maps, GPS location, and weather and terrain descriptions.
