Boundary Country
Boundary Country begins just south of Kelowna on BC Highway 33 and includes Beaverdell, Carmi, Westbridge, and the Christian Valley communities. At the junction of BC Highway 33 and the Crow’s Nest Highway, you’ll find the former gold rush town of Rock Creek – go west from here to Bridesville, or journey east to Midway, Greenwood, Grand Forks and the community of Christina Lake.

Beaverdell
Experience this unique town, filled with history and outdoor adventure. Beaverdell is best known for its hiking and biking trails along the Trans Canada Trail. Unplug and rejuvenate as you camp along the Kettle River.
Westbridge
Lush green forests and open meadows surround the community of Westbridge. This is a land made for outdoor adventure. In the spring, you’ll be greeted by waves of colourful wildflowers. Visit in the summer and hike and bike to your heart’s content. Come fall, the colours return in reds and yellows of larch and poplar trees.
Rock Creek
Welcome to Rock Creek, a land created by dreams of riches. Gold may have put Rock Creek on the map, but it’s the wealth of outdoor recreation that keeps people coming back time and time again.
Bridesville
Bridesville is surrounded by rich agricultural lands, rolling hills and pristine mountain views. It’s a great place to stop and take in the mountain scenery or watch animals roam on nearby ranches.
Midway
Originally known as Boundary City, the village of Midway is tucked away in the sun-soaked Kettle Valley. The Monashee Mountains gently give way to rolling meadows of bunch grass, rock roses and a semi-arid landscape. Look around, and you can easily imagine what it was like here in the early 1890s.
Greenwood
Greenwood is the little city that could. Once a thriving mining town in the late 1800s and early 1900s, it almost became a ghost town. In the 1940s it was an internment camp to over 1,000 displaced Japanese people. After the war, many stayed and made Greenwood their home. Our history is what draws many people to our city. Our hospitality and fun celebrations are what entices them to stay.
Grand Forks
The Trans Canada Trail and the Kettle and Granby Rivers all converge in Grand Forks. In this tranquil landscape, you’ll find postcard scenery, abundant outdoor recreation, heritage sites and cultural attractions unique only to this part of BC.
Christina Lake
Your backdrop is the Monashee Mountains, where Ponderosa pine, fir, and cedar forests slope down towards wide sandy beaches. Travellers are naturally drawn here to play along 45 km (28 miles) of shoreline. Laidback and relaxed, time is unhurried at Christina Lake.
