About Us

We are Brett and Karina, and we love finding and sharing fun stuff to do in the Kootenays!

The Kootenay Current was born from us waking up on the weekends in beautiful Nelson, BC and trying to find a fun thing to do with our day. ☀️

Our mission is to help you find the very best eats, drinks, activities, things to do, events, and local businesses in the Kootenays.

Whether you’re a long-time local or planning your vacation here for the first time, we’re here to give you ideas on experiencing the best of the Kootenays. This is a really special corner of the world, and we want to help you discover it all!

Some things you can find on this website are:

  • Recommendations of things to do all year long in the area
  • Food and drink recommendations
  • Day trip itineraries
  • Upcoming special events in the region
  • and much more!

Questions? Comments? Ideas? We would love to hear from you.
