An obstacle course of trees lies along this trail through the remnants of the Okanagan Mountain Park wildfire in 2003.

Be prepared to cross streams, traverse though grasslands and enjoy stunning sights of the Okanagan valley.

Due to the open space created by fallen trees, this area is subjected to high temperatures in the summer, bring plenty of water. In the Spring, small streams run across the trail, hiking shoes with good grip are recommended.

Be sure to do a tick check when you leave, the density of fallen trees is a habitat for the arachnids

Detailed Directions

Follow Pandosy which turns into Lakeshore Rd. Follow Lakeshore Rd all the way there until you hit the parking lot for "Okanagan Mountain Park" on the right side of the road (about 17 km from downtown Kelowna). At one stop light after hitting the orchard area, you'll need to turn right to continue on Lakeshore Rd instead of going up into Kettle Valley. If you hit signs saying "STOP, YOU'RE ON CAMERA" you've gone too far! Turn around!

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.
