The Kootenay Rockies are British Columbia鈥檚 answer to Alberta鈥檚 famed Rocky Mountains and hold the same UNESCO World Heritage Site status.

Just as big and beautiful, they are far less visited and offer visitors the chance to have the really big open scenery to themselves.

Wildlife of the Kootenay Rockies

Wedged between the mountains are sparsely populated valleys with large numbers of grizzly and black bears, deer, moose and elk: you have an excellent chance of seeing the large mammals.

Assorted mountain ranges

Hiking in the Kootenay National ParkLocated in the south-eastern corner of the province, between the Okanagan and Banff, the region includes several different mountain ranges, including the Rockies, Purcells, Selkirks and Monashees.

The area does not get the same level of publicity as its Alberta counterpart but it should: it鈥檚 an undiscovered gem.
