Summer is an amazing season in Castlegar because it lasts longer than anywhere else in the Kootenays. People are fishing in October, mountain biking in November, and paddling until the snow falls in December. Take advantage of an extended summer season by visiting us here in the heart of the Kootenays.

Castlegar is a magical place to visit any time of year and it’s especially easy to get to in the summer. 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 easy to drive here from such major centres as Spokane (3 hours) and Kelowna (4 hours).
