Castlegar is a magical place to visit any time of year and it’s relatively easy to get to. Air Canada Jazz offers almost daily flights into West Kootenay Regional Airport, which is a 10-minute drive from downtown. There’s a shuttle service from the airport via West Kootenay Adventure Tours. It’s also possible to drive here from such major centres as Spokane (3 hours) and Kelowna (4 hours) but it’s important to remember the mountain passes still have snow on them in the springtime.
