Millions of years ago, massive glacial ice floes carved out a valley, creating an ideal place for orchards and wineries. This is the Thompson Okanagan. A land of contradiction and lush abundance. Wild rivers. And tranquil lakes. Sheer-walled canyons. And wide open plains.
Even in winter, it’s easy to partake in the riches of this fertile region. Enjoy the winter Ice Wine Festival at Sun Peaks Resort, featuring everything from grape stomping to gourmet dining.
Spectacular scenery and breathtaking lakes on a backdrop of winter wonder are a sight not to be missed. Enjoy an up-close encounter with this unparalleled beauty, and stay at one of the many resorts dotting the lakes.
It's not just the fish that attract visitors. Catch a fantastic whitewater rafting experience on the Thompson, Fraser, or Adams Rivers.
Saddle up and explore. Follow a canyon trail. Or round up some wayward cattle. Where you stay depends on your idea of roughing it. Some guest ranches come with pools, tennis courts, and spas.
With over 50 courses in some fantastic settings, the area is home to some of Canada's best. Predator Ridge near Vernon. Gallagher's Canyon and Quail Ridge in Kelowna. Fairview Mountain in Oliver. Rivershore and The Dunes in Kamloops.
