Free Ski Shuttle

Looking for a little après-ski adventure? Catch a ride to downtown to explore the many dining and shopping opportunities. The Peak to Platzl Downtown Shuttle is a free transportation service between the Kimberley Alpine Resort base area, on-mountain accommodations and the downtown shops, pubs and restaurants. The shuttle operates daily (except statutory holidays) until closing of the ski season. Find the full schedule here.

Outdoor Rinks

City staff have been working hard to get the Lois Creek Outdoor Rink at Townsite (pictured above) up and running. Crews spent the past couple of days smoothing and flooding the ice and it is now safe for users. We will continue to monitor the ice as temperatures warm up this week. Please respect all signage. The Swan Avenue and DeWolfe Avenue rinks are also open for use and are being managed by neighbourhood volunteers. For more information about the outdoor rinks, please visit our website.

Bylaw Reminders

Angle parking is not permitted in the City of Kimberley, unless otherwise posted. Angle parking impedes snow plowing and narrows the traveled portion of the street, which obstructs the safe passage of emergency vehicles such as ambulances and firetrucks. Thank you for your cooperation.

Designated off-leash spaces

Please remember that your dog must be on leash at all times within the City of Kimberley, except for when you are using the designated off leash areas. Non-compliance may result in a fine. The Kimberley Nature Park, Lois Creek Trails and the Marysville Flats are all designated off-leash spaces to exercise your furry friends. Maintaining control and cleaning up after your dog still applies in these three off-leash areas.  View the Animal Control Bylaw.
