Accommodation

Okanagan and Thompson

Provincial park campgrounds and the Kelowna and Penticton hostels.

Hot and dry, and the one region here where summer heat is more likely to shape a trip than snow. Campgrounds book through BC Parks and fill early.

Campgrounds — BC Parks

  • Okanagan Lake — north of Summerland, on the lake
  • Cathedral Park — core-area camping in the high country west of Keremeos, reached on foot or by the lodge's 4×4 shuttle
  • Kalamalka Lake — day use and trails near Vernon
  • Wells Gray — north of Kamloops, and a long day from anywhere else on this page

Hostels

Huts — the Alpine Club of Canada has none in the Okanagan.
