Kuipers Peak Park

Kuipers Peak Park

South Mission

22 min from Downtown Kelowna
1008 Hewetson Court, Kelowna, BC V1W 5H8

A short neighbourhood walk to a spectacular sunset viewpoint.

Located amidst new homes, this small park offers very little in terms of elevation gain, but lots in terms of viewpoint rewards! Follow the easy to navigate trail to the summit, and across a few peaks (split mid-way by a manmade building). Ideal for a date night sunset.

GPS Notes
We have often color-coded our GPX tracks. While it is not always the case, we have tried to use the following convention on our newer maps:

Green/Blue: human-verified by our volunteers.
Purple: overgrown trail, bushwhack, or on private property.
Red: default color or not reality-checked
Yellow: Road
Other Colors: May have been satellite traced or imported from third party sources.

While we strongly believe our GPS are accurate, please be aware that no logging system is perfect and to be aware of potential errors. Use at your own risk.
