Canada's newest Gran Fondo, Now in its third season, the Creston-Kootenay Lake Gran Fondo nestled in the heart of beautiful British Columbia in the  Creston Valley.  It starts in Creston, alongside the rugged Skimmerhorn Mountain Range and 65-mile long Kootenay Lake in late September
The 95-mile route on lightly travel rural roads with stunning lake shore views filled with spectacular spring snow covered mountain views is sure to make riders ooh and ahh.  Its a great time to be there as the fruit stands are chock-a-block of fresh veggies and fruits!

Offering a warmer climate in Canada's banana belt ? only 5-hours drive from Calgary ? The Creston-Kootenay Lake Gran Fondo delivers breathtaking scenery and challenging end of the season event for riders of all abilities.

Gran fondo-ing in British Columbia in September, it doesn't get any better!
