Nelson Travel Tips
Nelson travel tips courtesy of GeckoGo
  • Nestled in the Kootenays, this town is just gorgeous. Right on the lake, take your car across on the ferry to experience some beautiful scenery. Evidence of logging is apparent, however, with the unsightly gashes on the mountains in front of you.  Lori K.
  • There's a legitimate marijuana retail store near downtown  The sahara forest
  • The outer clove, good food!  David L.
