Explore The Okanagan

Our Regions

The Okanagan is a region full of fresh water lakes, rolling hills, grasslands, mountains, forests, the largest wine region in the country and Canada’s only desert terrain.

Let curiosity fuel you and start your adventure through the stunning terrain of the Okanagan Valley.

The 180km-long Okanagan Valley is home to orchards of peaches and apricots, and scores of excellent wineries whose vines spread across the terraced hills, soaking up some of Canada‘s sunniest weather. The valley has provided a summertime escape for generations of Canadians, who frolic in the string of lakes linking the Okanagan’s towns.

Osoyoos, near the US border, is almost arid, but things become greener heading north. Central Kelowna is a fast-growing city that’s a heady mix of lakeside beauty and fun.

In July and August the entire valley is as overburdened as a grapevine before harvest; the best times to visit are late spring and early fall, when the crowds lessen. Snowy winters also make nearby Big White resort an attraction for skiers and snowboarders.
