Fancy a cruise? The longest free ferry in the world calls Kootenay Lake home, with daily voyages between Balfour to Kootenay Bay. With a sailing time of 35 minutes, stepping outside of your vehicle and onto the observation deck is a magnificent way to really grasp just how large the lake truly is. Climbing aboard this time of year is especially unique, as birds soar amongst the bright fall foliage in the crisp mountain air.
