Welcome to the Kootenays!
Put your best dance step forward!
Move the good groove back into the community! Remember, you represent the Shambhala community! When you arrive and leave our Kootenay towns and villages, help spread the SHAMBHALOVE~! Please be respectful of private property, camp only in designated areas and be mindful of “Small Town meets Shambhala”.
Don’t worry if you’ve never been to the area – our Shambassadors can help you at
The Salmo Shambassy
Roadside and easily visible, the Salmo Shambassy will rise on Tuesday August 7th at 2pm. It is located on the west side of highway 6 near the old railway station in Salmo.
Shambassadors will help orientate you to Salmo, let you know if there are line-up wait times and be that friendly face to help you on your way.
We will open Tuesday August 7th from 2pm – 10 pm. Wednesday August 8th 6:30 am – 10 pm. Thursday August 9th, 6:30 am – 10 pm. Friday August 10th, 10 am – 6 pm.
Please stop in for your first official Shambhalove hug!
Shambassadors are here for you!
