About Explore the Map

Hey, I’m Sam! I'm based in Kelowna, BC and love exploring the Okanagan (and beyond), finding hidden trails, scenic views, and cool adventure spots.

Whether it's hiking local mountains or traveling to new places, I love sharing my journey and helping you get out there and explore too.

Kelowna has so many amazing things to do, it’s h Kelowna has so many amazing things to do, it’s hard to narrow it down! 

But to keep things simple, here are 5 awesome summer experiences you’ll want to add to your list ⬇️

1️⃣ E-bike wine touring with @lakesideecosports. They provide the bikes and the route! I did this with @wanderingwellnessgetaway and had such a blast.

2️⃣ Canyoning in Kelowna or Penticton with @okanagancanyoning, it’s one of my most memorable adventures ever! Use code explorethemap10 to save 10%.

3️⃣ Grab a drink at @prettynotbadylw, which has tiki vibes all summer thanks to @tikirevivalpopupbar. Enjoy specialty cocktails and food in a fun atmosphere.

4️⃣ Catch live music at @intriguewines in Lake Country every Thursday and Saturday. It’s such a lovely way to spend a summer evening.

5️⃣ Paddle on Kalamalka Lake! It’s so stunning. I love launching from Kalamalka Provincial Park or Kaloya Park.

So, what’s your first stop?

👋 I’m Sam! Follow @explorethemap_ for more fun things to do around the Okanagan (and a few beyond!).

@wanderingwellnessgetaway knocked it out of the park again with another incredible event!

We cruised through East Kelowna on e-bikes with @lakesideecosports’ self-guided wine tour and enjoyed all the Okanagan summer magic ✨

First stop was @meadowvistahoney where their wine is made from bees! The Haskap was my favourite. Plus they have a self-guided bee tour 🐝

Then we rode over to @hiddenvineswinery for a sunset tasting with the winemakers and a picnic from @charcu.to.go.kelowna. 

The whole evening felt straight out of a movie! We all kept saying we couldn’t believe this was Kelowna. 

✨If you’ve been thinking about joining, do it! @wanderingwellnessgetaway hosts monthly women’s events around Kelowna, plus international trips every year. 

It’s been such an incredible way to meet new friends and have a blast trying new things ✨
