About Trail
Trail is a West Kootenay city built on the steep banks of the Columbia River, close to the Washington State border in southeastern British Columbia. It grew around the Teck smelter, still the dominant landmark on the riverbank, and retains a distinctive Italian-Canadian heritage in its neighbourhoods and food. Highway 3B connects it to Rossland and the Red Mountain ski area 10 km uphill, while Highway 22 follows the river south to the border and north toward Castlegar. Golf here means Birchbank Golf Club, an 18-hole course on a bench above the Columbia between Trail and Castlegar, in one of the warmest, driest valleys in the province.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about golf courses in Trail, tee time bookings, and more.
Trail is in the West Kootenay region of southeastern BC, on the Columbia River about 10 km north of the Washington State border. It sits at the junction of Highways 3B and 22, roughly 27 km southeast of Castlegar and about 640 km from Vancouver.
Birchbank Golf Club is the area's 18-hole course, set on a forested bench overlooking the Columbia River between Trail and Castlegar. It is a long, tree-framed layout that plays as the main public course for the Trail area.
Access from the west means crossing the Kootenay Pass on Highway 3, one of the highest paved passes in Canada at 1,774 m, or routing through Castlegar on Highway 22. In golf season both are clear, but the mountain highways add time, and Castlegar's airport is known for weather-related flight cancellations.
Trail's low elevation and hot, dry Kootenay summers give it one of the longer inland seasons, generally late March through late October. July and August regularly reach the low 30s, so early or late tee times are popular.
TeeClub has live tee times for one Trail golf course, Birchbank Golf Club, an 18-hole layout of par 72.
