Columbia-Shuswap A puts big-mountain scenery and day-to-day convenience on the same map. Powder mornings at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort segue into riverside walks along the Columbia, while the Columbia Wetlands set the stage for birding and quiet paddles. Local life orbits nearby Golden for shops and dining, with Revelstoke and Salmon Arm close enough for weekend outings. National-park scale scenery is part of the routine; Yoho National Park lies just up the road, offering waterfalls, alpine lakes, and iconic hiking.
Families will find strong education options led by School District 6 Rocky Mountain, including elementary and secondary schools in Golden and school-bus routes serving rural areas. Trades, continuing ed, and adult learning are supported through the College of the Rockies’ Golden campus. Recreation is truly four-season: lift-served laps, Nordic trails, downhill biking, rafting, and endless trail networks crisscrossing the valleys. Housing spans riverfront acreages, forested retreats, and in-town homes, while land-use and services are administered by the Columbia-Shuswap regional district.
