Getting Around
Getting around the Kootenay Rockies often requires a vehicle, as distances between towns and attractions can be significant. Renting a car or bringing your own is highly recommended for flexibility. Highways like the Crowsnest Highway (Hwy 3) and the Trans-Canada Highway (Hwy 1) connect many of the major communities. Public transportation options are limited, especially for reaching remote trailheads or smaller villages. Factor in potential winter driving conditions, as snow can impact travel times from late fall to spring, especially on mountain passes.
