Like many mountain towns in British Columbia, Trail was formed during the 1890's
Gold Rush. Prospectors and settlers flocked to the area searching for mineral
riches and found both gold and copper in abundance. This history has not been
lost on Trail, as the Teck
Cominco Interpretive Centre shows aspects of mining in-depth, with tours of
the world's largest lead and zinc smelter also offered. Trail is also home to
many world-class athletes, all who have proudly represented their home town on
a variety of international stages. The
Sports Hall of Fame pays tribute to this athletic heritage through displays
of their accomplishments. After the history of Trail has been explored, visitors
can take to the mountains and get recreational. Skiing, fishing, golfing, kayaking
and biking are not only popular Kootenay activities but they are also easily accessible
from the town.
