A WEEKEND IN KELOWNA
Kelowna and the surrounding Okanagan Valley continue to entice. From lush vineyards to golden highlands, sprawling lakes and scenic rocky perches, a fascinating mix of urban and rural, the ever-growing city holds rewards for every type of traveller, and each visit brings a new discovery.
We returned to Kelowna again this past September, exploring the burgeoning craft brewery scene in the city's North End, biking the new Okanagan Rail Trail along the always stunning Kalamalka Lake, hiking the grassy flanks of Mt Boucherie, and enjoying a morning horseback ride through Myra-Bellevue Provincial Park. It’s hard not to find the landscapes surrounding the city incredibly evocative and inspiring, the dry pine forests and aromatic deserts and golden light filtered through orchards and vineyards. Each time we visit it feels like we uncover a whole new set of places to save and savour for next time.
