We love the Okanagan and are so proud to call this valley home!

Here are some examples of how some of our readers are enjoying their Okanagan adventures, and have entered to win a summer Big White adventure package! For more contest details, click here.


"After living abroad for two years, we are embracing a “stay-cation” in the Okanagan. We have been visiting many of our old favourites (Bear Creek, BX falls, The Boulder Fields) and exploring others right in our back yard that we’ve never taken the time for (Canyon Falls, Christie Falls, Crawford Trails). We were thinking of going away for a week in August, but we’ve changed our plans - there is just too much awesomeness right here in our backyard!!!"


Paddle-boarding on Lake Okanagan with Okanagan Beach Rentals. Beautiful, relaxing and peaceful.


Twin lakes hike last weekend! What an amazing day. It's so great that we can hike the alpine and swim Okanagan lake in one day!!


The Okanagan is the perfect place for quality family time. Between hiking, biking, sightseeing, fabulous food, and wineries, you never run out of fun things to do and great places to explore!
