Golden

Golden combines a compact river-town atmosphere with a role as a mountain crossroads in a way that reflects its position between the Canadian Rockies and the Columbia Mountains. The town stands where the Kicking Horse River meets the Columbia River, on routes linking southeastern British Columbia with the national parks of the Rockies. The Kicking Horse Pedestrian Bridge, a timber landmark completed in 2001, crosses the river near the centre. Golden is also closely associated with mountain sports, with Kicking Horse Mountain Resort on the slopes above town and rafting on the Kicking Horse River.
