Nelson
It’s a legendary little city where metropolitan meets the mountains, heritage and hip live side by side, and celebrations abound throughout the four seasons.
The aptly nicknamed Heritage City is perfect for families and couples who want a little taste of it all, away from it all.
Far from big city crowds and today’s hectic pace, Nelson will take you back in time. The city has more than 350 heritage buildings, easy to see on walking and driving tours, or our famous Streetcar 23.
From the historic Capitol Theatre to the state-of-the-art Touchstones Nelson Museum of Art and History and exhibit venue, one of North America’s best little music, theatre and arts scenes thrive amongst Baker Street’s surprising shops, boutiques, and literally dozens of bistros, cafés and dining venues.
By bike, boat, hike or ‘boards, from Whitewater Resort’s famously deep, dry snow to Lakeside Park and the Nelson and District Recreation complex, adventure and fitness options abound.
And the attractions are year ‘round, with events like summertime Art Walks, street and park markets, early autumn’s Queen City Cruise and winter’s Kootenay Coldsmoke Powderfest.
