Mosey along the waterfront pathway of Nelson, Canada🇨🇦through Lakeside Park to Saint John’s Walk!

Part Two: The West Arm of Kootenay Lake is one of the hidden gems of the top travel destination scene well off the beaten path away from the crowds, where you can enjoy beaches, parks & athletic fields all in one lakeside park, set beside the infamous BOB (big orange bridge), the waterfront RCMP station that could be an Indigenous arts and culture centre & a crystalline creek, with the treed slopes of Elephant Mountain looming over it all in the background:)
St. John’s Walk is a somewhat new residential area and waterfront pathway built on top of an old industrial site by the lake’s west arm, which is why the landscaping is still pretty spartan;)
Make sure to watch part one and three of these sunny spring videos shot on the same pedestrian-friendly urban walk from the viewpoint lookout downtown to the unofficial nudie beach of Red Sands on the outskirts of town:)
We’re middle-aged adventure walkers who like to share our walking videos with you as we travel around, documenting our walks as ‘walkumentarians’; please like, subscribe & ring that bell icon so we can continue to make these beauties as part of a long-form documentary on how life is now as we know it in 2024 - and counting! If you have any questions about where we went on our walks, etc., please ask us in the comments:)

Right now, we’re back in Nelson, BC, Canada, one of the country’s most underrated travel destinations in 2024, while still being a bit off the beaten path and a hidden gem of a small city by the lake under the mountain peaks! We’ve spent a lot of time in Nelson over the years, so we can show you the ins and outs of a secretly famous place, and check out our walking video shorts on our channel: @MiddleAgeAdventureWalks/shorts
We recorded these videos on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of Sinixt Peoples. We make this acknowledgment to show our respect for the tmxʷulaʔxʷ (homeland), and Sinixt Nation. We feel privileged and grateful to be here, and we invite those reading this to explore their own relationship to place.

About our channel: We’re middle-aged, but you don’t have to be to enjoy our real-life walking tours! Even at this point in life, it’s okay to start new things, as you never when you start something where it could lead you. Our walking tours can be a great way to relax, travel if you are not able to, see new things, go for a walk & more! For those wondering who we are, we can be seen in the reflections and shadows:)
Join us on peaceful walks (and some not so peaceful!) through Mexican and Canadian cities, villages & nature on Indigenous Land. Every two to three days, we will share videos of our latest walk, which often take place in top travel destinations off the beaten path in hidden gems where tourists choose not to go. Our unique videos offer a serene and tranquil experience (most of the time!), with natural sound, raw footage and no background music or commentary, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the calming ambience of nature and real life. Our goal is that through our camera you can discover the beauty of the Mexican pueblos and barrios and Canadian towns and neighbourhoods and perhaps find inspiration for your next walk or holiday. Thanks for watching MAAW!

This is one of the best places to play soccer anywhere, as you can jump right into the lake after your game:)
