The Kootenay Lake Ferry operates vehicle and passenger service between Balfour and Kootenay Bay, a distance of nearly nine km. The MV Osprey 2000, built in 2000, operates year-round, and the MV Balfour, built in 1954, operates in the summer when the demand is higher. Following two rounds of public consultation we are improving the ferry service.
​
Improvements to the Kootenay Lake Ferry service will feature 4 components.
