The drive

The drive in

By car, Casino of the Rockies sits five minutes outside Cranbrook, at 7777 Mission Rd. From Canadian Rockies International Airport (YXC) the drive takes eight minutes. The casino is 25 minutes from Kimberley by car. Travellers from Calgary face less than a four-hour drive. The postal code for a map search is V1C 7E5.

Straight-line distances, computed from OpenStreetMap coordinates, give a second measure for planning. From the casino, Fernie is 51 km and Sparwood 65 km. Creston is 77 km away, Invermere 104 km and Calgary 202 km. These are lines across the map, not road distances. Roads between the valley towns run longer, so a route planner gives the real driving picture.

The clock

Set the watch

Cranbrook and the East Kootenay keep Mountain time, the same clock as Alberta. That puts the valley one hour ahead of most of British Columbia. A visitor driving in from most of British Columbia should move the watch forward an hour on arrival. Casino hours are local Mountain time: Sunday to Thursday 11 am to 11 pm, Friday and Saturday 11 am to 1 am. Holiday hours should be checked on casinooftherockies.ca.
