Salmo

Salmo has developed as a mining and forestry centre in British Columbia’s West Kootenay since the late 19th century. The village lies in the Salmo River valley within the Selkirk Mountains, and the river continues south towards the Pend d’Oreille River. The junction of Highways 3 and 6 connects the community with Nelson, Castlegar and the United States border. Salmo also has an international cultural presence through the Shambhala Music Festival, held each summer at nearby Salmo River Ranch.
