On the shores of Lake Windermere in the BC Rockies stands the town of Invermere. The lake, the rivers and the surrounding mountains offer beautiful scenery and numerous recreational opportunities such as skiing, hiking and fishing. Windermere Beach, located in the lakeside village of Windermere, is a short drive south of Invermere. Ski and snowboard lovers can take to the slopes at the nearby four-season Panorama Mountain Village in the winter and golf enthusiasts can enjoy the resort’s 18-hole Greywolf Golf Course in the summer. Those looking for excitement can take advantage of local whitewater rafting, snowmobiling and heli-skiing tours. Alternately, visitors looking for something less physical can learn about local culture and history by visiting the Windermere Valley Pioneer Museum or the Invermere Pynelogs Cultural Centre. After a mountain adventure or a tour through town, take a rejuvenating soak in the nearby hot springs of Radium or Fairmont.
