The
Kootenay Lake is about 120 km long, with the West Arm stretching
35 km into the west. The main direction of the lake is North
- South. At the south of the lake lies the town of Creston, with
many motels, restaurants, orchards and fruit stands. Driving
north, to the Kootenay Bay, you will pass many lakeshore hamlets,
marinas, motels, campsites, hiking trails. From Kootenay Bay
you can take the ferry and land in Belfour, and continue all
the way to the historical town of Nelson. From Nelson you can
either come back to Creston, or progress West to the Okanagan
Valley. Arrow Lakes are parallel to Kootenay Lake on the West
side in a more wild area.
