Nestled amidst expansive vineyards, woodlands and beaches, Kelowna is the ultimate nature lover’s paradise. The city is ideal for travellers looking for a laidback base from where to explore British Columbia’s wilderness. Adventurous travellers can enjoy biking through Kettle Valley Rail Trail, or enjoy water sports at Okanagan Lake. If you are travelling with children, you can enjoy a day of berry picking at Okanagan Orchards.
Adults can also explore the beer scene at the Great Okanagan Beer Festival every May, or go on a wine trail at one of many wineries near Kelowna.
However, there is no better way to experience Kelowna than staying in the great outdoors in your private yurt.
