Tucked into lush Selkirk Mountains, is the soulful community of Nelson, British Columbia. There is plenty of tranquility here and lots of action too. The rolling Selkirk Mountains set against the West Arm of the Kootenay Lake offer scenery that defies comparison. Thanks to the mild climate here, you can ski without freezing in the winter and fish without scorching in the summer. This makes Nelson a paradise for outdoor sports enthusiasts. The award winning terrain and abundant snow make for amazing skiing, snowboarding, snowmobiling and snow-shoeing in the winter. Whitewater ski hill is only 20min away with up to 42 feet of average snowfall per season, and a range of 12,000 to 18,000 feet of vertical terrain. As the snow melts away in the spring, the landscape becomes a mecca for golfing, hiking, fishing, climbing, mountain biking and bird watching.
Baker Street, the heart of the downtown core, is alive with the spirit that has slipped away from so many Canadian cities. It will awaken anyone’s sense of nostalgia. You won’t get bored shopping in the many one of a kind-businesses. Nelson takes the sophisticated approach of integrating art into the community. Nearly every restaurant and public center doubles as a gallery. Nelson’s live entertainment venues host first-rate performances year round which, combined with the selection of fine restaurants, brings the advantages of big city cultural night life with the added benefit of accessibility. www.discovernelson.com
