Golden and Kicking Horse Country in British Columbia is a mountain town just 2.5 hours’ drive west of Calgary AB. Surrounded by the Canadian Rockies and Columbia Mountains it is perfectly located at the junction of the historic Kicking Horse and Columbia Rivers. Nestled between Yoho and Glacier National Parks, Golden BC offers adventure for everyone, from hiking, whitewater rafting and mountain biking in the summer, to downhill skiing at Kicking Horse Mountain Resort, snowmobiling and heli-skiing in the winter.There are no fancy shopping malls here, but three mountain ranges, two historic rivers and six mountain parks coupled with a real mountain community makes for an unfogettable experience.

Today, we recognize the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation and Orange Shirt Day.

We honour the children who never returned home, the Survivors of residential schools, their families and communities, and the lasting impacts of the residential school system and the current challenges Indigenous peoples face.

Golden is a place with deep and ongoing connections to the Secwépemc, Ktunaxa and Métis peoples. Today is an opportunity to listen, learn and reflect on the histories and experiences of Indigenous peoples, and to consider the role each of us can play in reconciliation.

We encourage our community and visitors to take time today to learn, participate in local events and continue that learning beyond September 30.

Tourism Golden is grateful to live, work, and play on the traditional unceded territory of the Ktunaxa and Secwépemc peoples and chosen home of the Métis Nation CRS

What the heck is a larch? 🌲✨

Unlike most conifers, larches lose their needles every fall but not before putting on one of the best colour shows in the mountains.

Around Golden, these golden trees are a sure sign that fall has arrived! But larch season doesn’t last long. If you catch them at their peak, make the most of it. 🍂

Whether you’re a runner or a supporter, there’s plenty to see and do in the area before or after your Golden Ultra race!
