Fall Activities

Fall is a magical and relaxing time around Kootenay Lake. From mid-September through to early November, brilliant autumn colours decorate the beautiful East Shore and the mountain heritage towns of Nelson and Kaslo. Mild temperatures slowly give way to cooler fall activities while alpine peaks tempt eager skiers and attract photographers capturing the spectacular sights.

• paddling
• fishing
• golfing

The cool crisp air is ideal for strolls on historic main streets and shopping. Warm up with a meal or beverage at a funky brewery, restaurant or charming cafe. Patios are a huge part of our friendly culture, and still catering to outdoor diners which keeps the streets a buzz morning to night. 

Check out the diverse selection cultural attractions all across the region or chill out at a spa or relax in a cozy room, and slow down after a busy summer and embrace our fall.
