Welcome to Creston!

Creston lies just to the south of Kootenay Lake's lowest reaches in a region renowned for its temperate climate and lush natural beauty. Sitting just above the Kootenay River and surrounded by a ring of mountains, orchards of cherry and apple trees spread out from Creston filling roadside stalls with plenty of fresh, juicy fruit during summer months. The abundant fruit harvest is celebrated in the annual Creston Valley Blossom Festival, a fun-filled event that brings friendly locals out each May for a number of festivities, including a parade, a street fair and a vintage car show. The long, mild summers have also drawn artists to Creston and its streets boast a wealth of studios and galleries. For nature lovers, the Creston Valley Wildlife Centre is a quick trip north. This 17,000-hectare (42,000-acre) nature reserve is home to 265 bird species and sits on the shores of Lake Kootenay, itself a natural wonder. This clear mountain lake draws fishers, boaters and water skiiers to its coves and beaches.
