The Columbia and Kootenay Rivers flow through the valley in opposite directions creating a diverse habitat for wildlife and unlimited recreational activities.

Centered between the Rockies to the east and Purcells on the west, this Valley is also known as the "Warmer Side of the Canadian Rockies". The area is famous for its tourism amenities such as world class skiing, golfing, natural Hot Springs and its abundant wildlife.
