Mountain Peaks & Towns Trip Ideas

This summer, challenge yourself to experience the Kootenays Rockies in unexpected ways.  While the quality of our hiking, mountain biking and golfing experiences is well known, there are countless opportunities to explore our mountain playground.

Dust off Grandpa’s old hiking boots and pick up a pair for the kids.  There’s no better place for a family hiking trip than the Kootenay Rockies. From valley bottom routes full of wildlife to high alpine ridge walks accessible by chairlift.

If you want dramatic mountain golf, the Kootenay Rockies is your golf destination. The many spectacular courses are all about mountain views, elevation changes, rugged topography and beautiful holes that wind alongside stunning rivers and lakes.

With big, epic mountain ranges in the Kootenay Rockies – the Canadian Rockies, Purcells, Selkirks and Monashees, there are also big valleys and many are filled with glacier fed waters. If you love paddling, boating, fishing or just relaxing on a beach and soaking up natural vitamin D, we have some great ideas for a beach getaway.
