Water bottle refillWashrooms

The S.S. Moyie is the oldest known intact passenger-carrying sternwheel steamer in the world, built in 1898 for the Canadian Pacific Railway and now permanently ashore in Kaslo on Kootenay Lake. Designated a National Historic Site of Canada in 1958, it offers tours of the original vessel—including the freight deck, saloon, pilot house, and paddlewheel—alongside a Visitor Centre, Gift Shop, Caboose, and the Kootenay Lake Archives. For a touring cyclist completing the Kootenay Lake loop, this waterfront site is a genuinely remarkable piece of BC and CPR history.
