    Hiking

    The Kootenay River catchment area lies in British Columbia, Northwest Montana and Northern Idaho. The river rises north of Kootenay National Park and flows into the Columbia River near Castlegar, BC, after about 780 kilometres. On its way through the mountainous landscape, the river drops by about 1,800 meters.
