Our Natural Environment & Tourism

Part of the charm of The South Kootenay is it's grass roots approach to tourism. There is a distinct absence of commercialism and an emphasis on more natural attractions and home style hospitality. The many local lakes and rivers provide excellent swimming, fishing, kayaking, boating, river tubing and other summer recreation opportunities.

The area offers a host of parks with ball diamonds and tennis courts, curling rinks, ice arenas and Golf courses. National Geographic Adventure Magazine named Rossland as #1 Mountain Biking Destination and the famous Red Mountain Ski Resort is just minutes away!
